It felt great to look at the whole view of Kobe from the outdoor observatory while cutting through the cool breeze. It was also fun to watch the crowds of people in downtown Kobe.

We visited 8 attractions and the ticket cost about 8,800 yen. Among them, Nunobiki Herb Garden, Kobe Animal Kingdom and boat ride (Atakumaru) are really worth visiting and experiencing.

If you are traveling to Kobe, I recommend the Tourist Smart Passport. You can use popular tourist spots in Kobe for free or at a discount for a set number of days. I used it for Nunobiki Herb Park, Ferris wheel, cruise, hot springs, etc.

I used the Tourist Smart Passport to visit many famous places during my two-day trip to Kobe. Thanks to it, I was able to travel inexpensively and enjoy the Nunobiki Herb Garden Cable Car, Kobe Mosaic Ferris Wheel, Kobe Harbor Cruise, and Arima Onsen Gin-no-yu.

It is very close to JR Sannomiya and Motomachi Station, about in the middle. Because the hotel is on a high floor, you can see a beautiful night view at night. The hotel facilities are also good, and you can store your luggage!
