The 10 Best Architectural Buildings in Kobe, Kinki
Famous for its luscious beef and crisp, pure sake, the Japanese port of Kobe is a thriving metropolitan city with an international feel. The sake-brewing season runs from October through April, and that's the best time to take a tour of a kura (the Japanese word for brewery). Visit the Hakutsure Sake Brewery Museum year-round. Naturally, the nightlife here is prime perfection.

A MINATOGAWA shrine was established to praise Kusunoki Masashige's spirit. He was a commander of the 14th century military and devoted his whole life for an emperor. Kusunoki Masashige is the person who combined the gentleness with the courage and wisdom and is the samurai monarch respected most in Japan. A statue of his bronze is displayed in the Imperial Palace in Tokyo. There are a lot of kinds of charms. Happiness of better fortune and the family, amulet, talisman, sweetheart search, schoolwork accomplishment and pass. A lot of red Toriis and architecture in a main shrine I dominate are wonderful.A lot of children who put on a kimono will come in October and November. Its state can make them feel the Japanese feelings very much. It's showy and pretty.
