Historian Isoda Michifumi, originally from Okayama Prefecture, thoroughly explains the appeal of Kurashiki's Japanese heritage. This fifth episode will feature "The Story of Kurashiki, Beginning with a Single Cotton Flower - Kurashiki since the Meiji Era". Kurashiki's Bikan Historical Quarter is bustling with tourists from Japan and abroad. The textile industry is deeply involved in the townscape of "Japanese" and "Western", with its white-walled storehouses and Western-style architecture. The development of Kurashiki's textile industry is the story of three young men and one businessman. We will deliver a unique perspective on the history that was created and polished by our great predecessors! ▼Program page https://www.ksb.co.jp/isoda_kaisetsu2...
