The Kobe scenery from the montain side and the ocean side is different.
Near our hotel, there are many cruise ships, such as a harbor cruise which can board while enjoying a meal, and we believe you feel a boundless expanse of ocean and also you can enjot the view of theRokko-san mountains in daytime.
