Kansai Travel (feat. Himeji Castle, Kobe City Hall Observation Deck, Dotonbori)

Himeji Castle is a must-visit, and I highly recommend exploring Koko-en Garden nearby as well. The beauty of the garden is something that cannot be fully captured in photos—it’s truly picturesque. Each section of the garden feels like a painting. While Himeji Castle is famously known as the White Heron Castle, visiting it requires a significant amount of physical activity, almost akin to hiking. Be sure to bring water with you. If you forget, there are vending machines at the entrance where you can purchase some before heading in. Kobe turned out to be a city with more attractions than I initially expected. It’s just as beautiful and entertaining as Osaka, with plenty of interesting spots to explore. Although I only managed to visit the Uroko House in Kitano Ijinkan, I encourage others to explore more of the mansions in the area. I regret missing out on the opportunity to see more. Near Osaka’s Tennoji Station, Harukas 300 offers not only a high observation deck but also a free garden on the 14th floor (if I recall correctly), which is worth visiting. Additionally, there’s a bakery nearby called Bien Sur that serves incredibly delicious bread. Make sure to stop by!
