Kobe Kitano Ijinkan-Gai Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Kitano still has the Ijinkan (Western-style building where foreigners live) left over from the Meiji era. With the opening of Kobe Port in 1968, Ijinkan gradually increased, making Kitano Ijinkan Street full of exotic flavors. There are now 20 or 30 Ijinkans open to the public. The white Western-style buildings standing on the corners of the street have many pleasing sights. The Kazami Chicken Hall, built in 1909, is a representative building of Kobe Ijinkan; the red brick exterior wall It is beautifully coordinated with the interior decoration of Art Nouveau and has a gorgeous style. The furniture of the year is also very valuable. There is also the Menghuang Pavilion, which was built in 1903 and used to be the residence of the American Consul General.

It is a very beautiful place. Worth a visit It is unique that reflects the way of life of Japan as well. Can travel easily using public transport.
Very old street with European style, groups of villas are on the ramp, and it is a climb to go up. I didn't expect that Europeans and Americans settled in this bay city very early. Each pavilion has a different style of home placement, which is very interesting.
Kobe city center is a major attraction, mainly to visit exotic buildings, each building is a must-charge admission, but the streets are already exotic.
It’s a nice place for a stroll, but most of the museums require a ticket, and the tickets are relatively expensive. Good spot for photos, and you can buy Kobe souvenirs here

Kitano Exotic Hall, Kobe European-style building concentration area. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from Sangong Metro Station, all the way up the slope. Apart from Kobe Tower and Kobe Harbor, almost all the scenic spots in Kobe City are concentrated in Beiye Exotic Hall. Here are Japan's first Starbucks, the Museum of Menghuang, the popular chicken and the Tianman Palace in Kitano, praying for study. There are few tourists along the way. They can walk slowly and take pictures of the scenery. Or just find a coffee shop for afternoon tea. There are also many old-fashioned desserts here. Frantz's strawberry truffle chocolate and pudding are not to be missed, along with ice cream and doughnuts from Hexa Ranch. Kobe-limited Royce pudding and local yellow pudding, each is delicious. The journey can start from Starbucks and head for the Yellow Pavilion. Then to Wind Seeing Chicken and Beiye Tianmangong. It takes about two hours to walk down the whole way. Beiye Tianman Palace is a free visit. The Museum of Menghuang and the Wind-Seeing Chicken can be visited inside. The ticket prices are not high.
Kobe Kitano Alien Hall Street. It is 10.15 minutes from Miyagi, Japan, through Kitano, all the way north to Alien Hall Street. If you start from the new Kobe station, the Beiye trail is the best route. Because Kobe was a place where foreigners lived during the Meiji Port Opening Period, it left behind a large number of 19th century Western-style buildings, which are very distinctive, collectively known as "Alien Hall". Among them, the most famous ones are "Wind Seeing Chicken House" and "Menghuang House" - "Wind Seeing Chicken House with strong European color" named after "Wind Seeing Chicken House" which stands on the roof of the triangle. It stands in the traditional tones of Japan, highlighting its beautiful carvings and beautiful architectural curves.
