There are currently about twenty or thirty Ijinkan open to the public, with the white Western-style buildings standing at street corners, offering many pleasing sights.

Traffic : Take JR to Sannomiya and walk for about 10 minutes!
To do No.2 How can Kobe not eat Kobe beef once! The choice of restaurants is not too much, and there are generally teppanyaki and set-up grilled steaks! If you want to taste the 5A beef that is imported, you must choose teppanyaki! The price is almost 1000 yuan per person. If you want to be more cost-effective, you can choose to go to noon! If you don't have an appointment, be sure to go around 5:30, otherwise it's hard to have a place!
To do No.3 There are many shrines in Kobe, and you can see the Nagoya Shrine, which is very close to JR Kobe Station, and Ichinomiya Shrine, Ninomiya Shrine, Sannomiya Shrine, which is very close to JR Sannomiya Station. You can visit the past all the way! Because the niche is unpopular, so there are basically no pictures!

More than 200 foreign-style houses have been built, and now there are six More than ten buildings, of which more than 20 are available for tourists to visit.
