- Attraction Introduction-

▲ Himeji Castle
Himeji Castle, a National Treasure and World Cultural Heritage site, is nicknamed the "White Heron Castle" for its elegant architecture, symbolizing the jewel of Japan's ancient castles. The castle's most iconic structure, the main tower, appears five stories high, but its interior boasts seven floors, six above ground and one underground. The castle's well-preserved walls, combined with the pure white exterior and the mythical creature "Oshagi" adorning the eaves, create a magnificent illusion, resembling a white egret spreading its wings atop Mount Himeji. As Japan's most iconic and best-preserved castle, Himeji Castle is a designated National Treasure and Special Historic Site by the Japanese government, and one of Japan's first World Cultural Heritage sites. Due to its exceptionally well-preserved state, it is also known as "Japan's Most Famous Castle." Many period dramas and films have been filmed here.

▲ Karoroyashiki Park

Karoroyashiki Park offers visitors a unique opportunity to glimpse into Japanese history and culture. The park preserves the remains of the residences of former ancestral elders, allowing visitors to observe the unique features of ancient architecture and garden design up close. Walking along the park's paths, visitors will encounter meticulously manicured gardens, stone lanterns, trees, and flowers, creating a relaxing atmosphere. In addition to the ancient architecture and gardens, there is also a historical exhibition area showcasing the ancestral elders' daily utensils, artwork, and other artifacts.

▲ Arima Onsen

Arima Onsen is not only one of Japan's three ancient springs, but also a renowned hot spring resort, earning it the distinction of being one of the three ancient springs. This ancient hot spring area is renowned for its diverse spring qualities, particularly Kin-no-Yu, Gin-no-Yu, and Taiko-no-Yu. I highly recommend Kin-no-Yu, whose golden-orange waters, derived from iron-containing saline springs, are truly unique.

▲ Mount Rokko
Mount Rokko, stretching approximately 30 kilometers from east to west, is renowned for its expansive greenery and diverse outdoor activities. As the largest outdoor resort in the Kansai region, it offers unique views year-round, offering unique experiences in each season. It is also part of the Setonaikai National Park. The summit is surrounded by a vast plateau, offering breathtaking night views of Kobe's city center and port, often described as a "million-dollar night view."
