I visited the Kibitsu Shrine on my way to Okayama and was very impressed by this shrine. The shrine was massive and beautiful. There are huge parking lots that are free here. After parking I recommend walking to the main temple area, then the covered walkway, then cross the street to visit the other shrines and gardens in the small town. The whole area is well designed and beautiful. I was here on a Friday morning and it was not very crowded felt like I had the place to myself. The shrine is well protected and they take very good care of the property. I think this shrine is a must if in the area.

This very old shrine also know as Mototaro Shrine, a very famous shrine at old Kibi District. The shrine is just located not far from JR Bizen-Ichinomiya Station. You can also rent a bicycle here for easy and comfortable sightseeing

Interesting walkway through the city. The garden along the canal is pretty. There are lots of statues and quirks along the way. You can also dart off to a restaurant or convenience store as well.

Other than Okayama city information, they have information and brochours for the entire Okayama prefecture. They also offer luggage storage services and free wifi. It's located in the underground shopping center under Okayama station (ichi ban gai)

I had to get directions from Tourist Information for this mall as it wasn't well signposted. You can however, walk through the myriad of tunnels to it from Okayama Station. There's a Tokyo Hands and Aeon Style store and many other chain stores. There are a lot of "beauty" and clothing shops and a comprehensive world wide supermarket, wine shop and information centre. It's one of the biggest malls I've seen so far in Japan. It can be a bit overwhelming.
