Kobe Travelogue: Mount Rokko
This image of Mount Rokko to Arima Onsen cable car got me hooked. Unfortunately due to the location from our accommodation, we did not able to visit. [Photo Grab Only] |
Its another cold morning in the early winter of November. It is struggle to get up, do a quick shower and start the adventure again. How we managed to reach Mount Rokko relied upon our rented pocket wifi and google map.
This is how it looks like. From Osaka almost two hours to Mount Rokko. We got lost, we alighted at wrong train station. |
Kinda worried that day, with our guts we rode back assuming we are on the right track. No foreigners on the platform, the more we feel isolated haha. We supposedly to alight at Rokko Station. |
There! We reach the Rokko Cable Shita Station then another Cable Ride to the mountain. |
The inside of our ride! |
Even in this mountainous area, Japanese are so organize. Bus will stop at certain location only. Buses are using swipe cards so less ticket trash. |
2nd Stop - ALPINE BOTANICAL GARDEN |
Can you feel the soothing spirit of these autumn leaves? This awesome background is exactly what we are looking for. |
Had lunch before embarking on new spot |
Where's next? |
3nd & Final Stop: Garden Terrace, Arima Ropeway & Observatory Deck in one place. |
What to see here: Restaurants & Shops |
Here's the Observatory Deck Structure |
We don't understand of how it works but here is the inside of the observatory! |
At the back of observatory is the Arima Ropeway. |
Laid-back afternoon (Ang sarap lang magbasa sabay tulog) |
The place is literally just for us! No other tourist! |
What a lovely day! |
Traveling is expensive, that's a fact!
Traveling is not so expensive if
there's seat sale, a fact too.
But at the end of the day what matters
is how you spent it. WORK HARD, WANDER HARDER! |
