ABOUT
About this spot
Just minutes from downtown Kobe, ride the ropeway up the mountain and you will find a herb paradise that makes you forget everyday life. Kobe Nunobiki Herb Gardens is one of Japan's largest botanical spots, where about 200 types of herbs and flowers change their look with the seasons. The garden is full of attractions for adults, including the exotic "Observation Rest House," restaurants serving seasonal herb dishes, and the "Scent Museum" where you can experience various fragrances. Relaxing on the terrace overlooking the city and sea of Kobe is especially wonderful. You can choose luxurious ways to spend your time, such as swaying in a hammock feeling the breeze or soaking your feet in a herbal foot bath while enjoying the view. From dusk into the night, the romantic setting overlooking Kobe's "ten-million-dollar night view" adds to the charm. It is perfect for dates and girls' trips, and also for those who want to refresh quietly on their own. Why not spend a special day healed in mind and body, surrounded by seasonal fragrances and spectacular views?
