Four-day trip from Osaka to Shikoku Kagawa by car (´ ▽ ` )ﾉ We passed by Awaji Street SA on the way, which has a beautiful Ferris wheel 🎡, rich and cost-effective souvenirs (I bought a lot and they were all delicious!). The dining area is spacious and clean, the environment is comfortable, and the food is also good! This is the first time I like a rest stop so much, I even insisted on going again on the way back 😍 #四国 #淡路島 #伴手礼 #明石桥

#Osaka Attractions This time we introduce you to the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in Kobe Port, Kansai. Construction of the bridge began in 1988 and took ten years to finally be completed in 1998. After its opening, it became an important transportation hub connecting Honshu and Shikoku. There is an observation deck attached to the bridge, and standing on it, you can see the entire Kobe Port and neighboring islands in the distance. It’s easy to get here, get off at Osaka Kansai Airport and transfer to the Namba Train or JR to Osaka Station, then transfer to the Shinkansen towards Kobe. Friends who like to see scenery can go next time.

The Kobe Son Memorial Hall is located in the North District of Kobe City, Hyogo County, Japan. It was established to commemorate Mr. Sun Yat-sen, the pioneer of the modern Chinese democratic revolution. The building was funded by the governments of China and Japan and people from the community, and it was officially completed and opened in 1935. The architectural style of the memorial hall combines Chinese and Western cultural characteristics. The facade of the building is a traditional Chinese style "yellow glazed tile" roof, and the interior is a modern display space. In the museum, many precious relics and historical materials of Mr. Sun Yat-sen are displayed, such as his manuscripts, letters, photos, etc., showing his great contribution and influence in modern Chinese history. There is also a tea room and souvenir shop in the memorial hall for tourists to rest and buy souvenirs. 戶山紀念館位於日本兵庫縣戶市北區。 它的成立是為了紀念現代中國民主革命的先驅孫中山先生。 該建築由中國和日本政府以及社群人民資助，於1935年正式竣工並開放。 紀念館的建築風格結合了中西文化特色。 建築物的立面是中國傳統風格的“黃色釉面瓦”屋頂，內部是一個現代化的展示空間。 在博物館裡，展出了孫中山先生的許多珍貴文物和歷史材料，如他的手稿、信件、照片等，展示了他對現代中國歷史的巨大貢獻和影響。 #Akashi

#MarchTravelSupportEvent The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge is the world's longest suspension bridge, connecting Kobe City and Awaji Island in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan. With a total length of approximately 3,911m, it is famous for its magnificent scale and beautiful scenery. It is especially popular with tourists for its beautiful night view, and you can also view the strait from the bridge observation deck. The engineering skills designed to withstand strong ocean currents and earthquakes are also noteworthy.

What's fun in Kobe? Isn't it just Qingdao… “What's fun in Kobe? Isn't it just Qingdao?” It's Qingdao, it's Dalian, it's Hong Kong, but it just can't be Kobe… For adults, not being a killjoy is basic courtesy. The meaning of travel has increasingly become a matter of personal taste and niche hobbies. 🇯🇵If you've done even simple research, you'll know that Kobe is a coastal city with Suma Beach🏝️, the million-dollar night view of Mount Rokko and Mount Maya🌃, Kobe beef, and Arima Onsen. But if you dig a little deeper, you'll discover that Kobe is an old industrial city where most shopkeepers don't speak English, and drugstores have "Help Wanted" signs seeking bilingual staff. You have to go up Mount Maya and Mount Rokko early and come down early, or you'll miss the last train and have to walk down a dark mountain path. At the port, you can even see remnants of 1990s corporations— like the city itself, old but respectable, allowing you to imagine the prosperity and boom here during the economic heyday. Just ticking off tourist spots will only leave you thinking, "Oh, that's it?" But if you stay overnight, you might just unveil Kobe's hidden curtain. It's the glowing sea at Maiko Marine Promenade🌊, the tourist boats waiting at the port🚢, the Suma sunset reflecting on your face🌇, the aroma of fried croquettes wafting from the station kiosk🍘, the slow arrival of the train🚈, crows scattering and shaking the overhead wires, and elderly Japanese men and women nodding to you on the downhill path👵. ♨️At night, slide open the wooden door, and the hot spring well cover in the courtyard steams, the medicinal waters washing away the day's fatigue. As you gaze out the window at the darkening streets, you've truly arrived in Kobe. There's no set itinerary for Kobe. If you only have one day, go to the beach if you like the sea, or stroll up the mountain if you like night views. 🌌"Speed is the form of ecstasy, and slowness is linked to memory" - Milan Kundera Tips:🌟From Osaka Station, take the JR Tokaido-Sanyo Main Line (Special Rapid Service, Okayama/Himeji direction) for about 35-40 minutes directly to Suma Station.

A structure that has become part of the landscape✨ [INFORMATION] Akashi Kaikyo Bridge 📮655-0047 4 Higashi Maiko-cho, Tarumi-ku, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture 🕑Open 24 hours #Free hotel stay

If you go to Kobe, it is recommended to take a few stops west. The Akashi Bridge in Maiko witnesses the essence of human bridge technology. This bridge connecting Kobe and Awaji Island has a maximum span of over 1,900 meters, making it the second largest suspension bridge in the world. The steel cables in the main structure are very mysterious. Each one is made up of 290 steel strands, which in turn are made up of 127 steel wires. In other words, one steel cable uses 36,830 steel wires. During the Great Hanshin Earthquake, the bridge was only four kilometers away from the epicenter, but it suffered only minor damage. This shows how solidly built this bridge is. The green building next to it is the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, also known as the Yiqing Pavilion. It is full of Taisho modern style and is the only Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in Japan. 📍Address: 〒655-0047 4 Higashimaiko-cho, Tarumi-ku, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture #JanuaryGoodPlaces2025

This is a suspension bridge located on the way from Kobe to Himeji. It once had the status of the longest suspension bridge between main towers in the world, but it is no longer. However, its grandeur remains, so it is worth seeing at least once. If you take a bus from Honshu to Shikoku, you will pass by this bridge. For those who want to experience it for themselves, we recommend taking a bus from Kobe to Tokushima or Matsuyama. #2025Overseas Travel Event

I heard that the Akashi Bridge on the west side of Kobe is quite spectacular. I don't like to plan too much in advance; I prefer surprises, and in Japan, surprises are rarely unpleasant. So, I only checked the route to see if the train goes directly there, which is quite convenient for tourists. Then, I set off. When I arrived at the station and took a walk around, two things caught my attention: 1. Right outside Maiko Station, there's a local supermarket. It seems that people living in the surrounding area rely on this station for their daily needs and come here to shop for groceries. (Unlike most train stations in the city, where you usually see small fast-food restaurants, convenience stores, or shopping malls.) 2. I thought it was just a sea and a bridge. But after crossing a pedestrian bridge from the station, I saw the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in the distance. The famous saying 'The great way is public' is widely known. I also remembered his profound statement, 'The trend of the world is mighty; those who follow it will prosper, and those who resist it will perish.' To say such concise and shocking words in that era truly makes him a great man. The Akashi Bridge by the sea is just a big bridge to an ordinary person like me. I've seen longer and wider ones, so it didn't resonate much with me. However, the seaside promenade and the dedicated fishing platforms below are particularly enviable. This place is very friendly to anglers, which explains why I saw several people with large backpacks on the train earlier—they came specifically with their fishing gear. The waves on the sea reflect golden light on the faces of the anglers, outlining their focused expressions through their hair, depicting various aspects of life. Seagulls and ospreys fly in the sky, ready to dive into the sea for a feast at any moment.

DAY 37: The Golden Week holiday is over. When everyone returns to work, I am also ready to set off from Kobe City. Today's destination is Himeji City, which will be the prelude to a 20-day bicycle tour of the Seto Inland Sea. There is no need to rely on navigation. Basically, I ride along the coastal road. When I pass the Akashi Bridge, I will see Awaji Island connected to Honshu. On the other side of Awaji Island is Tokushima Prefecture connected to the Naruto Bridge. Unfortunately, this road is not accessible by bicycle. It can only be driven by car or large motorcycle. If I have the opportunity in the future, I would like to bring my wife to go on a self-driving tour of the Seto Inland Sea.

If you are in Japan and have the chance, don't miss this place! It's so chill, sunset by Akashi Bridge #awesomepic

| I flew to Osaka specially! . I flew to Osaka specifically for this sunset 🌄 spot of the century! 🔶 Abeno Harukas 300 Observatory 📍 1-1-43 Abenosuji, Abeno-ku, Osaka City 🎫 1800 yen If you ask where is the best place to overlook Osaka, most people will definitely say Umeda Sky Garden? But compared to Umeda, the observation deck of Abeno Harukas is the best place to overlook Osaka! This is the tallest building in the entire Kansai area, with a height of 300 meters. When visibility is clear, you can overlook Kyushu Island and the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in Kobe. 🔶 About Transportation Navigation "Abeno Harukas" can be reached by taking the JR Loop Line (Tennoji Station) or Kintetsu (Osaka Abenobashi Station)! 📷 About Photography 1⃣️ Take the elevator 🛗 to the 16th floor to buy a ticket (1,800 yen), then take another elevator to the 60th floor observation deck! 2️⃣ Arrive one hour before sunset so you can capture the three views of day turning into night! 3️⃣ The observatory has a 360-degree view. I suggest you take a look around. You can see many landmark buildings in Osaka, such as Tsutenkaku, Shinsaibashi, Osaka Castle, etc.! One floor down is a cafe with a nice view! 4️⃣ If the visibility is good, you can see a nice sunset in the direction of the "Akashi Kaikyo Bridge"! ⚠️You can use a tripod at the observation deck, I’ve tested it myself! ! !

Station🚉: No station, just a service area Price💰: Expressway toll Attention‼️: The view is beautiful at night! There is an uphill and downhill service area! Because it is a service area, there is a wide variety of food and souvenirs! How about a short drive? Recommendation👌:3 1. I won't go again! 2. Pretty average 3. Very good 4. So good I would recommend it to someone! ⁡ ⚠️This is the situation when I visited. #0yentrip

Good quality and low price. Akashi Castle and Dawei Coast offer views of the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, comfortable hot springs, and delicious breakfast.
