Okayama is a city full of history and culture located in the center of western Japan. It is known as the Land of Sunny, with a mild climate and little rain all year round. Okayama is also known as the Fruit Kingdom because the fruits that have been exposed to the sun in the warm climate of Setouchi are of the highest quality in terms of sweetness, aroma, and taste. Must-see attractions include Okayama Korakuen, one of Japan's three most famous gardens, Okayama Castle and Kurashiki Bikan area. Each season has different scenery and activities, such as the cherry blossom season in spring, the iris season in summer, the red leaves season in autumn, etc.

JR Kansai WIDE Area Pass 5 Days
Scanning tickets with the machine is very convenient. You can also reserve seats for the Shinkansen or Limited Express trains using the machine without having to queue manually, which is especially convenient. Although you can only reserve seats by machine 6 times, it's relatively enough. For the 7th time, you can queue at the green window to reserve seats manually. Combining the Amanohashidate and Ine Passes, there are many people queuing to exchange for the pass on the right side of the train station exit, which is quite convenient and cost-effective.

JR Kansai-Hiroshima Area Pass | 5-Day Rail Pass
It's very convenient to travel from Kansai to Hiroshima in just 5 days, covering many places. However, the exchange location could be more clearly stated. In Kobe, you can only exchange currency at Sannomiya Station to catch the Shinkansen from Shin-Kobe Station; you cannot exchange currency at Shin-Kobe Station.
