I imagined that this Rokko Garden Terrace would be spacious, when I read an article about here in a free paper magazine but not so wide. I spent approximately three hours on having lunch, shopping, seeing panorama on the observatory stand. It was sufficient. Athletics, natural woody gardens, or farm is located in Mt. Rokko. But there had been no fashionable foreign residential-style facility around the mountain before. In that point developing this area seemed to be perfect! It was a fun and fashionable spot, but, I cannot deny that I was not satisfied with this facility to my heart content. You can buy souvenirs around Rokko area in the facility, but some shops deal in power stones, glass art works which are irrelevant to Kobe. In addition everything is a little pricy. I think it good for a shop providing fair-trade products. I came here during day time in summer(it was absolutely cool!!). Enjoying nightscape is recommended! You can be fascinated by a million dollar nightscape everywhere. A unique objet, Rokko-Shidare observation lit up also seems to have fantastic atmosphere.
