The climate of Kurashiki (Japan)
Kurashiki is situated on the Takahashi River in the western part of
Okayama in Japan. This city has a beautiful historic centre. Because
Kurashiki is situated on a river the city has always been a trading
port. The beautiful old and typical warehouses in the trading suburb
are still a silent witness to this time. Many of the old warehouses
are still in tact. The city also has two modern art museums, which are
worth visiting.
Kurashiki has a warm sea climate. Because of its protected location
Kurashiki has much fewer problems with floods, typhoons and tsunamis
than other coastal areas. Kurashiki doesn’t get much rain all year
round. Some months are a little drier than others. Temperatures are
mild and there is little difference between summer and winter.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
