When you walk around Kobe, you will find many things. I would like to deliver such something that caught my eye as the "Kobe, Rediscovered" series. The first stage is the work of Kobe-born sculptor Hirokazu Ichii. "Rainbow Floating Statue" Sunlight from far away space encountered water droplets on the earth after rain and created rainbow colors. I hope that many such miraculous encounters will be born in Kobe, and that many wonderful rainbows will be cast. It is written. This is a statue that I stopped when I was walking along the center street of Sannomiya. I hope that when you come to Kobe, you will find it. There are a lot of people on the street, so please be careful not to face down too much and bump into it.

In neighboring temples, lotuses are planted in large pots. In summer, large flowers bloom. The lotus position is a beautiful platform on which the Buddha sits... I also love 😊 this flower, looking up from below

View of Maiko Park and Akashi Kaikyo Bridge from the courtyard of Kobe Maiko Villa. It's a bridge!

1995.1.17。 A day that should not be forgotten as long as you live here. On the day of this disaster, let's prepare once again.

I stayed at Hotel Okura Kobe, got up early and took pictures of the sunrise over Kobe Port. I forgot that the morning sky was so beautiful.

Sanda Fruit Flower Park My Idol It stood out more than the illumination laughs 😁

Sanda Fruit Flower Park A product I've been interested in for a long time I'm glad 😌 I was able to experience it It was 😀 futuristic, like outer space.

Sanda Fruit Flower Park Fountain Illumination Wrapped 😌 in sparkle

The illuminations 😯 of the fruit flower park in Mita, Hyogo Prefecture that I have wanted to go to and see for a long time It was the best illumination I saw with my family in the last year of 2022.

This is a superb view from the Mt. Rokko observation tower in Kobe. After climbing a steep hill on a road bike, I was very happy because it was a light awn that suddenly appeared from the morning sun! !! I was able to see the heavenly world and the earthly world at once, and it was as if I was 😊 drawn into the world of myths such as the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki.

It is a total lunar eclipse of the sailing ship "Miraihe" and Beaver Moon. I shot in Kobe and Kamomeria.

The dreamy colors of dawn... This is a photo shoot at Meriken Wharf in Kobe.

It is the kanbase of flowers that bloom in the garden of the Hyogo Prefectural Embassy. It was taken two years ago.

Hotel La Suite Kobe Harborland

In Kobe, you can often see scenery like a sailing ship festival. The ones in the picture are Japan Maru and Kaio Maru. It was taken around dawn, but both boats were lit up.

It is a Chinese temple called Kanteibyo Temple in Kobe. It enshrines the hero of the Three Kingdoms, Guan Yu. I posted the photo because it was on the ceiling of the mountain gate and the picture was written in very vivid colors. The one in the back is the middle gate, also called the Denglong Gate, which is likened to the reason why the carp of the Yellow River travel up the rapids and turn into dragons.

Shingenna, at the knee of the great master Scenic green This is a morning photo of Kobe in the driveway again. In the immediate vicinity of here is Shubogahara, where Kobo Taishi Kukai is said to have trained.

The heron said... It was a photo shoot at Suma Fishing Port! !!

Mr. Seagull said... I took a picture at Kobe Meriken Wharf!!

Mr. Pigeon walks like ... It was taken at the Suma Coast "Wishing Palm Tree"! !!

Even now, the lights of the city twinkle in the breeze... This is a night view taken from Shoyama in Kobe around dawn on January 17 of this year.

The "Palm Tree of Wishes" planted on the beach along the bay. The morning sky also took the shape of clouds like a bay.

For some reason, there was a chick near the front door this morning. came in. The chick who hid in the bushes in surprise me?? Shooting. The pattern was very beautiful, so I posted it! !! Mr. Chicks?? Sorry 🍀 to scare you After this, it flew away with a loud feather sound.

When I was looking at the flower trees on the road between Hankyu Okamoto Station and JR Settsu Motoyama Station, I thought it was a dogwood, so I took a picture. In such a place, it was blooming at about the height of the building. It was very surprising, but I felt lucky to see it in the city.

Meriken Wharf in Kobe. When a summer night's dream ends.

Climbing a mountain by bicycle in the early morning of summer. When I was a child, my grandmother often brought me to Shojoike, but the numerous calls of the Higurashi are sometimes accompanied by the chilling sounds of giant frogs. The atmosphere that could only be experienced here for a long time still remains intact. Only now did I know the origin of the pond. In the Edo period, farmers suffering from drought at the foot of the mountain asked to build a large reservoir in the mountains, but permission was not easily obtained, and many years passed. After the farmers continued to plead without giving up while suffering from the sunshine, permission was finally granted and a large reservoir was completed. The farmers expressed their gratitude to the daikan and performed Noh "Son" by this pond. In commemoration of this, the pond was named Sonari Pond. Torches burning in the twilight... The sound of flutes and drums seems to resonate.

I really love seeing these massive fireworks displays and this one is really incredible. Just comparing the height of the fireworks to the height of the builds in the city you can get an idea of just how large-scale this fireworks show is. I know the Minato Kobe Marine Fireworks Festival is in October but I'm hoping to see some fireworks this spring at least. I know summer is a little far off but there's definitely going to be fireworks then, that's for sure. I remember the one trip I went to Kobe I didn't get to see these amazing fireworks, but I was able to dry some delicious Kobe Beef burgers that were really just incredible. I would have liked to go to a steak restaurant but it didn't really fit our itinerary. It ended up working out though, as the burgers were great!
