    Once we reach the top, you will be rewarded with breathtaking views along with the pleasant aroma of herbs and flowers. From there, we will slowly walk through one of Japan’s largest herb gardens, where approximately 75,000 herbs and flowers of approximately 200 species bloom all year round. After spending some time in these beautiful gardens, we will return to the ropeway station and prepare for our descent. After landing, we will start walking towards Kitano Ijinkan. We can see different styles of the houses. Some are Western, some are modern and of course some are Japanese. Finally we are here, the exotic Ijinkan street.

    Finish our trip by returning to the port area and admiring the vivid night view. As a port city, Kobe is of course very close to the sea. The Harbourland is where you can enjoy the beautiful illumination of the harbour. We can calm our minds after a long day of walking while enjoying the refreshing sea breeze.
