異人館
Kōbe's main attractions are the Ijinkan (foreign houses). These are 19th-century residences of Kobe's foreign traders, clustered in the Kitano area.
竹中大工道具館
A very nice exploration of hand carpentry tools, from the stone axes of Jomon age to the Western influenced tools of yesterday. Hands-on exhibits and English language descriptions make this a pleasant place to spend the afternoon.
布引の滝, Nunobiki no taki
Four waterfalls that empty into the Ikuta River. The largest is 43m high.
相楽園
A nice Japanese-style garden in the middle of the city. Very good value and a great attraction to see after going through the Ijinkan area.
Offers nice bay and mountain views of Kobe.
