20 Ryokan in Japan

Founded in 1914, Bingoya has been serving culinary delights to visitors to Tamashima Port in Kurashiki. A detached building built in the Sukiya style sits in a garden surrounded by old Baba trees. Each building is built as if climbing up the mountain slope, so the higher you climb the better the views become. Each building has its own unique charm, and is elaborately designed to evoke the good old days of Japan. Formerly a traditional restaurant and still a ryokan (traditional Japanese inn), Bingoya offers authentic kaiseki cuisine made with seasonal ingredients from the Seto Inland Sea, served in a detached building or private room.
