About this place
The Bikan Historical Quarter is the preserved merchant district along the willow-lined Kurashiki River in Kurashiki, Okayama, about 15 minutes’ walk south of JR Kurashiki Station. White-walled storehouses, the Ohara Museum of Art and the brick Ivy Square mill complex are its landmarks.
The mapcode points into the quarter itself, among the old houses on the lanes behind the canal. Those lanes are narrow and given over to pedestrians, so park on the edge. Use one of the paid car parks around the district and walk the last few minutes in.

How to enter this in your car navigation
- On the navigation home screen, choose Destination (目的地).
- Choose Mapcode (マップコード) from the search methods.
- Type the digits, then the asterisk and the last two digits.
- Confirm the map preview shows the right area before you set the route.
Most Japanese rental cars (Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Times, Orix) accept mapcodes. Some older units ignore the *nn suffix. That is fine, because it only refines the pin.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the mapcode for Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter?
- The mapcode is 19 633 150*44, pointing at a spot in 岡山県. Written as decimal degrees the same point is 34.596525, 133.772586. A navigation unit takes the mapcode in far fewer keystrokes than the coordinates, so enter the code.
- What is a mapcode?
- A mapcode is a short numeric code that identifies a spot in Japan, developed by Denso. Japanese car navigation systems accept it directly, which avoids typing a Japanese address on a Japanese keyboard.
- How do I enter a mapcode in a Japanese rental car?
- On the navigation unit choose Destination (目的地), then Mapcode (マップコード), then type the digits. The two digits after the asterisk are an optional precision suffix; older units simply ignore them.
- What do the digits after the asterisk mean?
- They are a high-resolution suffix that narrows the point to roughly a few metres. Without them the code still resolves, just to a slightly wider area.
