Elk . Newyork . Brunch Okayama Ichibangai

When on vacation to Setouchi, don't miss the chance to ride the Hello Kitty shinkansen train which is only 1 in the world! The Shinkansen in collaboration with Hello Kitty, whose train car walls are decorated with pink ribbons, from seats to galleries and shops selling Hello Kitty knick-knacks in car 1, all illustrated the Hello Kitty uniform, so they couldn't help taking photos! The holidays will be more excited by starting a journey to meet Hello Kitty and friends

Good medium sized train station, didn't have any trouble finding where to go and there is a reasonable array of shops in the underground shopping mall and on nearby streets above ground. Bit of a hike to get from the station to tourist spots like Okayama Castle or Kourakuen though.

Huge station, nice to walk around it.
