[2024 Kobe Attraction] Travel Guide for Kobe Nunobiki Herb Gardens (Updated Sep)

Kobe Nunobiki Herb Garden

Amazing view from our Cable car ride to visit Kobe Nunobiki Herb Garden. We went up the through the cable car to see the evening view of the city and went back down to see the night view of Kobe. If you get in after 5pm, you won’t be able to enter the herb garden but you will still be able to enjoy the amazing view of the city from atop. Up in the hill there will be some shop and restaurants. Definitely worth to visit if you’re on a day trip to Kobe - Japan. #kobe #viewontop #cablecar

A Garden with Free foot spa

The garden is located on the top of the mountain that you have to ride on to the cable car. When you reach the top, you will see a few food stalls, a restaurant, a cafe, gift shops, a perfume museum, and some workshops. There is a path you can walk down, and you’ll see a lot of plants, flowers, and different types of herbs. They have a resting area full of swing beds, and it was so comfortable. The most exciting part is the free foot spa, which is actually an onsen. The heated spring water comes from this mountain, which is very famous in Kobe. That time I went there, it was in the winter, so it was perfect for me to try that onsen, you will have to pay 100 yen for the clean towel. While you are in the onsen, you can relax, enjoy the amazing view, and take a deep breath. The people recommend not soaking yourself for too long, about 10–15 minutes. I love this place so much that I went there twice, so I do recommend it to you guys and I hope you will enjoy.

The whole place is absolutely beautiful and spread out that you won't feel crowed like many other touristy places. We spent about two hours there and enjoyed our visit there immensely. Have a taste of their lavender ice-cream cone, it's different! You can enjoy herbal tea, snacks and a meal at the top or you can pose like a model between the cute architectural buildings and the flowers. A perfume museum is also available at the top. Experience the difference between the perfume elements or learn how perfume is being created in their mini lectures. #givethanks #givethanks

In love with this place in Kobe, in addition to Japan's top beef, you will find that it is quiet and foreign, so that you can heal and enjoy the elegant time of everyday life, which is one of the most suitable places for a holiday.

It is located in the Kobe Garden of Kobe, surrounded by flowers and herbs, and offers a beautiful view of Kobe. Whether sitting indoors or on the terrace is a wonderful experience of luxury and healing.

After exiting Shin-Kobe Station to the ground level, you take the ropeway. Once you reach the summit by ropeway, you can overlook the entire city. There are shops at the top, so if you're hungry or want to drink alcohol, the summit is the place to be. The rose garden was also beautiful. It is recommended to leisurely descend from the summit to the midpoint of the ropeway. The path is well-maintained and clean, and you can enjoy the pleasant air of the fresh greenery. As you make your way down, stopping at various places where herbs are planted, you'll come across a flower field at the midpoint. On the way back, I took the ropeway from the midpoint station down to the bottom. Even if there's a line, don't worry, you won't have to wait long to get on. I think the season of fresh greenery before the rainy season is the best time to enjoy it ☺️
