#QuintessaCampaign When you think of Hyogo, you think of Takarazuka. I somehow feel that way. Takarazuka city has many train stations and everywhere has a quiet, upscale residential atmosphere. Wilkinson, the carbonated drink, actually originated in Takarazuka. There is also a Tezuka Osamu museum.

The SA on the Shin-Meishin Expressway in Hyogo Prefecture is a service area that makes you want to go there👍 Here's why✨✨✨ Collaboration products such as objects from Tezuka anime such as Astro Boy and Princess Knight, sweets, handbags, and accessories are waiting for you✨✨✨ They also sponsor the local area, so you can find the hard-to-find Great Buddha pudding and pickled wasabi enoki mushrooms👍 It's a really wonderful service area💕💕 #QuintessaCampaign #BreathtakingView #CoupleTrip #Gourmet #Takarazuka

I'm going out for a bit👍 If you are coming from Hyogo prefecture on the Shin-Meishin Expressway, you should definitely stop by here😉 A highly recommended service area is here✨✨✨ "Shin-Meishin Expressway Takarazuka Nishi Service Area" If you are planning on taking a bus trip or using the expressways during your stay in Japan, be sure to stop by. It's like the world of the Takarazuka Revue👍 #breathtakingview #coupletrip #themepark #Quintessacampaign

A delicious Japanese restaurant, "Kagonoya Takarazuka Branch" located on Takarazuka Line Street from the Hanshin Expressway. Take off your shoes before entering. Each table is a sunken table, so you can sit with your feet down. It's great that you don't have to sit upright~😊😊😊 During lunch time, you can get this quality food for under ¥1000. There are two types of desserts, starting from ¥290, so it's very reasonable!! You can share the dessert with someone💗 #gourmettrip #HyogoPrefecture

If you're a fan of manga or anime, this is a must-visit spot! Located near Hankyu Takarazuka Minamiguchi Station (about a 10–15 minute walk), the entrance fee is 700 yen. The museum features a rich collection of original manuscripts and video introductions. In the basement, you can even experience animation effects through computer operations. It's truly a worthwhile destination! Nearby, there's also the Takarazuka Grand Theater, making it perfect for a full-day itinerary!

Nakayama-dera Temple is located in Takarazuka, Hyogo Prefecture. This temple is said to be very beneficial for prayers for safe childbirth, fertility, and shrine visits. There are many visitors, including pregnant women and couples with babies. To pray, you write your wish on a bib and apply for a prayer. There are water flute and rice cracker stalls set up in the temple grounds, making it a great place for sightseeing. At the entrance to the temple, straw sandals (on which you write your wish and hang it up like an ema plaque) are sold to people with bad legs or those praying for foot-related issues, such as wanting to run faster.

☕️《Hyogo/Takarazuka》 While I was on the Takarazuka line, I remembered this coffee shop at Yamamoto Station and decided to stop by.😍 I had been interested in it but never had a chance to go, so this was my first visit.☕️✨ The building is cute, and the light coming in is also nice.🙌 There are miscellaneous goods in the store, and although they are under construction, they will also have an underground area.☺️✨ It was close to closing time, so there were no other customers, and it was nice to be able to relax.🥰 However, I didn't have much time, so I'd like to stop by again if I'm in the area! The latte and cookies were delicious🤤✨ —————————— ✔︎ Youdoknow coffeeAddress | 2-9-3 Yamamoto Higashi, Takarazuka cityOpen | 11:00-16:00Closed | TuesdayAccess | 4 minutes walk from Hankyu Yamamoto station #Hyogo#Takarazuka #youdoknowcoffee #hyogocafe #Kansai gourmet#Hyogo cafe#Takarazuka gourmet#Takarazuka cafe#Takarazuka coffee#Takarazuka sweets#Takarazuka takeout#Yamamoto cafe#Yamamoto gourmet#Hankyu line cafe#Hankyu line gourmet#Nakayamadera cafe#Nakayamadera gourmet#Itami cafe#Itami gourmet#Kawanishi cafe#Kawanishi gourmet

#IntroducingBreathtakingViewsInJapan The god of Takarazuka There are many shrines, but when building a house, people pray to this god. Then, a ground-breaking ceremony is held so that the god will protect the house. When a ground-breaking ceremony is not held, the god's amulet is placed on the roof of the house for protection. A New Year's prayer and Early spring plum blossoms and fresh flowers beautifully displayed at the purification basin.

#springwander A popular Shibazakura spot in Mita City, Hyogo Prefecture. The park is only open from mid-April to early May, when the Shibazakura is at its best, and it is crowded with many visitors every year. When it is in full bloom, Shibazakura is in full bloom on the gentle hills, and the number of them is about 100 million! It was named "flower carpet" because it bloomed so much that the ground was invisible. Surrounded by the pink scenery and sweet scent, your heart will definitely be healed.

I went to Kiyoharajin Shrine in Takarazuka. The 8 white snakes at Ikeda Shoten in the Sandoa were very popular and very cute. There were many old-fashioned souvenir shops on the approach to the shrine. No matter which restaurant you go to, you can't go wrong and have a delicious lunch with a lot of dashi. The nearby Nakayama-dera Temple was also wonderful. Please go and check it out! 📍Location: Takarazuka #Domestic travel

I went to Hankyu Takarazuka Station. Two lines run through Hankyu Takarazuka Station. It is also just a short distance from JR Takarazuka Station. There is a department store called Hankyu Department Store around Hankyu Takarazuka Station, and there are also shopping malls and convenience stores, so it is convenient for shopping. And the most noteworthy thing is that about a 10-minute walk away is a place called Takarazuka Grand Theater, where the Takarazuka Revue Company's theater, which has a history of about 110 years, is located. As you can see below, Hankyu Takarazuka Station has advantages in terms of transportation and shopping. It is especially recommended for women. 📍Location: Takarazuka City, Hyogo Prefecture #Hyogo Prefecture #Takarazuka #HankyuTakarazukaStation #TakarazukaStation #TakarazukaGrandTheater #ShoppingMall #DepartmentStore #0YenTravelJanuary2025

#AccommodationTravelRecordLine At first I thought it looked like a wedding hall lol As a fan of classical hotels, I felt that the hotel before the move had a more solid feel to it, but the new rooms and bathrooms were very comfortable☺️ I actually wanted to stay in a review room or suite, but unfortunately they were fully booked. I couldn't get a double room for two consecutive days, so I changed rooms. It's good that it's so popular! More than anything, it's right next to the Takarazuka Grand Theater! You can spend the time after the show in a dreamlike state🥹❤️I'm happy that you can watch not only the Takarazuka Sky Stage but also on-demand broadcasts💓A dream space perfect for those who want to spend their time immersed in Takarazuka✨ 📍Hotel Information━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Hotel Name: Takarazuka HotelAddress: 1-1-33 Sakaemachi, Takarazuka City, Hyogo Prefecture #TakarazukaHotel #Hotel

This was my first visit to the Tezuka Osamu Memorial Museum, and it was great fun to be able to experience once again as an adult the world of anime that I have been familiar with since childhood. This time, I only stopped by during the mystery-solving tour, but as I looked at the exhibits, I felt nostalgic and made new discoveries, and I felt like I wanted to enjoy it more slowly. I was able to rediscover the depth of Tezuka Osamu's work, and next time I would like to take more time to visit and relax.

The main purpose of traveling to Japan is to watch a play. It was my first time to enter the village, and I was very excited. Unfortunately, I only stayed here for one day. The scenery was beautiful, quiet and dreamy. I chose to stay at the Takarazuka Hotel, which was gorgeously decorated and the service staff was very gentle. Because I arrived early, I left my luggage at the counter and went out for a walk. When I came back, they had already put my luggage in the room. Next time, I will choose to stay a few more days.

I was finally able to go to a lifestyle shop that I had always thought was wonderful when I saw it on Instagram! It's easy to get there by car, but if you walk hard you can also get there by train 🤍 The moment you enter, you'll be amazed by the wonderful space that spreads out before you 🥹 It's a world view that makes you think that each item was carefully selected one by one.

At Hankyu Takarazuka Station, you'll find several photo spots that symbolize the Takarazuka Revue, such as the stairs, the Yume Plaza 'Takarazuka Revue' monument, and the 'Rose of Versailles.' Although I missed it this time, there's also a large feather at the end of platform 4 inside the ticket gates at Hankyu Takarazuka Station. Just being at the station was enough to get me excited. ✱----------------------------------------------- 【Name】Takarazuka Yume Plaza 【Access】In front of Hankyu Takarazuka Station Visit Date: July 2024 -----------------------------------------------✱
