09:30-11:00 ▼Pick up/drop off/pick up at hotel/private inn; we will not wait after the scheduled time, so we recommend that you wait at the meeting point 10 minutes before departure. 12:00 ▼Kobe Port/Mosaic Ferris Wheel (free walk/lunch on your own/approx. 2.5 hours) Kobe is a trading port with a 140-year history as one of the world's leading international ports. It flourished as a foreign settlement during the Meiji period, and many of its exotic buildings remain today, making it popular with tourists as they look great on social media. Kobe landmarks such as the Port Tower, Mosaic Ferris Wheel, and the large shopping mall umie stand side by side. Take a leisurely stroll along the sea while feeling the sea breeze. 14:30 ▼Kitano Ijinkan-gai (approx. 1 hour) Since the opening of Kobe Port, many foreigners have lived here since the Meiji period, and the Kitano Ijinkan-gai is characterized by its streets that still convey the atmosphere of the Meiji period. On a hill overlooking the sea, there are many public foreign-style houses, including the "Kazamidori no Yakata" (Weathercock House), a national important cultural property with a weathercock on the roof as its symbol, and the "Moegi no Yakata" (Moegi House), the residence of former U.S. Consul General Hunter Sharp, where you can experience exotic culture and history. The Kitano area of Kobe, which is crowded with tourists, is full of wonderful shops. Kitano, which is full of exotic atmosphere and harmony, is full of discoveries that will make you want to come back again and again. 16:30 ▼Arima Onsen (free stroll / about 1.5 hours) Arima Onsen, the inner sanctum of Kansai, loved by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, is one of the three oldest hot springs in Japan. It has been loved by many literary figures and celebrities, and the hot spring town is still full of traditional atmosphere. You can enjoy the different spring qualities of Arima's specialty "Kinsen", a brown-colored hot spring containing iron and salt, and the colorless and transparent "Ginsen", which is popular with women as it makes your skin smooth. There are two public outdoor baths, Kin no Yu (gold spring) and Gin no Yu (silver spring). There are also inns that offer day-trip bathing, and Arima Onsen Taiko no Yu, a hot spring theme park with 24 types of baths. We recommend touring the seven springs, including Tenjinsengen, which emits white smoke from the central chimney while making a gurgling sound. 18:00 ▼ Night view of Mt. Rokko (about 1.5 hours) Mt. Rokko is located in the southeast of Hyogo Prefecture. Its international history, excellent hiking trails, and stunning views of Kobe and Osaka make it one of the prefecture's main tourist destinations. On top of Mt. Rokko, there are observation spots where you can see the cities of Kobe and Osaka, and the panoramic view is breathtaking! There are also plenty of spots where you can enjoy delicious food and drinks while looking at the beautiful night view, so you can enjoy Kobe with both your eyes and your tongue. 19:30 ▼ The tour ends. 20:30 ▼ The day's itinerary ends happily!

Would you like to try making a traditional onigawara? I have made and restored many onigawara, so I will teach you individually. The size is about the size of a CD case. Time is about 2.5 hours. The time to complete varies depending on the person. It is about 2 to 2.5 hours. Once it is completed, your name and the year of production will be written on it with a spatula, and the experience will end. There are onigawara with open mouths and closed mouths, familiar from the Aun breathing (Aun) harmony, Agyo and Ungyo, so please make the one you like.
