768x300 EN 1

Kurashiki is a beautiful city facing the Seto Inland Sea. Kurashiki has developed into a merchant town, a textile industry town, an industrial city, and a cultural and tourist city. As befits the “Land of Sunshine,” Kurashiki is blessed with the mild climate of the Seto Inland Sea and the water of the Takahashi River, a first-class river, and has a thriving agriculture and fishing industry. The Kurashiki area is famous for its beautiful white-walled buildings and rows of willow trees, the Kojima area is famous as the birthplace of domestic jeans with its beautiful inland sea scenery, the Mizushima area is one of the leading industrial areas in western Japan, the Tamashima area flourished as a port town, and the Mabi area has a peaceful rural landscape with bamboo groves. Kurashiki City has different attractions depending on the area.

Kurashiki Bikan Area 

Kurashiki Bikan Area is located almost in the center of Kurashiki City, and is a town where you can feel history and art, and is a popular area visited by many people day and night. Visitors can enjoy a trip back in time with whitewashed mansions, rows of willow trees, and riverboat cruises, while also enjoying modern-day Kurashiki denim, cafes, lunch in the Bikan Historical Quarter, and Kurashiki hot springs. Village House Nishiachi exists not far from the Bikan Historical Quarter and has become a popular property due to its easy accessibility. With a large shopping mall and other commercial facilities nearby, there is no shortage of places to start a new life.

Kojima Area 

Facing the Seto Inland Sea, this southern area is a port town rich in nature and is home to Japan’s first national park, Setonaikai National Park. The textile industry has also developed, and the area is very famous as the “birthplace of domestic jeans. In addition to jeans, canvas products are also attracting attention, accounting for 70% of domestic production. Washuzan Highland, an amusement park with a spectacular view of the Seto Ohashi Bridge, the Seto Inland Sea, and a national park, is also a popular spot, and the Kojima Boat Racetrack, which will be reborn in 2026 following renovation work, will surely become an even hotter spot. Village House Kojima No. 2 and Village House Shionasu are also close to the Kojima area and are highly recommended and popular properties.

Mizushima Area 

The Mizushima area is also located in the southern part of the city, facing the Seto Inland Sea, and has developed as an industrial town since before World War II, becoming one of the leading coastal industrial areas in Japan. At night, the lights of the industrial complex create a wonderful view, and its beauty has been selected as one of the “100 Best Night Views. The Mizushima Observatory, located on the Washuzan Skyline, offers a panoramic view of the Mizushima Industrial Complex and is known as one of the best night view spots in the prefecture. You can also see the night view from Village House Shionasu, which is relatively close to the Mizushima Industrial Complex.

Tamashima Area 

Located in the southwestern part of Kurashiki City, this area is easily accessible from Shinkurashiki Station on the Shinkansen bullet train line. Like the Bikan Historical Quarter, the Tamashima area also has many retro buildings that give you a sense of a town from the Showa period. The southern part of the area along the sea is an industrial zone, like the Mizushima district, and is an important area that supported the industrial development of Kurashiki. Village House Tamashima is located within commuting distance from that industrial area, and is one of the important properties that contribute to the area. The layout is recommended for singles who are starting a new life, so those who are interested in this property should definitely consider it.

Mabi-area

The Mabi-area is located in the northwestern part of Kurashiki City and is a peaceful area with bamboo groves and rice paddies. Mabi-is also known for the numerous Yayoi period ruins and burial mounds scattered throughout the area. It is the largest producer of bamboo shoots in the prefecture, and is working to create new specialty products. The bamboo shoot digging held in the spring is a popular family event. Village House Mabi-Daini is located in the center of town, and some rooms have been fully renovated to 1R or 1LDK. With the latest amenities installed in the rooms, you’re sure to enjoy the newly built atmosphere while living a brand new life! 

We have mentioned a few of the village house properties included in each area. There are 13 village houses scattered throughout Kurashiki City, which is the largest number of properties in Okayama Prefecture. Kurashiki City currently has a variety of support systems in place, such as government subsidies for immigration and job placement, and there are people who have taken advantage of these systems to actually move to the city and establish a new brand by taking advantage of the city’s famous textile industry. Why don’t you start a new life in a village house in Kurashiki, which has various attractions? Please feel free to contact us at Village House, which can serve any area in Kurashiki City!
