One Day in Kobe Japan | Travel With Me 3.3

One Day in Kobe Japan | Travel With Me 3.3

We start our adventure with a quick train ride from Osaka to Kobe, setting the stage for a day filled with cultural and natural exploration. Our first stop is Ikuta Shrine, a serene and historic Shinto shrine nestled in the heart of Kobe. This beautiful, centuries-old shrine offers a tranquil atmosphere and a glimpse into Japanese spirituality and tradition, making it a perfect introduction to the city.

After soaking in the peaceful vibes of Ikuta Shrine, we make our way to the Kobe Ropeway Station. Here, we hop on the ropeway and ascend to the Observation Deck, taking in sweeping views of the city and the bay as we rise. At the top, we explore the Kobe Nunobiki Herb Gardens, a lush hillside retreat filled with vibrant flowers and fragrant herbs. We wander through the different themed areas, enjoying the variety of plants and the fresh mountain air.

Our descent leads us down to the Gondola Lift Station, but instead of taking the Gondola, we decide to hike down to immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of the area. This path takes us by the Nunobiki Waterfalls, a picturesque series of waterfalls that provide a refreshing backdrop as we walk. Continuing on, we pass the peaceful Nunobiki Reservoir and follow a scenic trail along the Ikuta River, taking in the surrounding greenery and the calming sound of the water.

The hike eventually brings us to Shin-Kobe Station, where we wrap up our Kobe exploration. With memories of serene shrines, lush gardens, and beautiful waterfalls, we catch the train back to Osaka, feeling satisfied and enriched by our one-day trip to Kobe.
