Kobe Nunobiki Herb Gardens is the largest herb garden facility in Japan, where you can see 75,000 herbs of around 200 different species, growing at an altitude of about 400 meters. It is filled with fresh scents and colors all year round. With 12 gardens of roses, lavender, seasonal flowers, and more, the vast park has plenty of places you can take beautiful pictures.

There is also a restaurant, cafe, and terrace with a full menu of seasonal herbs and edible flowers. Many of them are grown in the gardens. “The Veranda Kobe" has original menus such as the original parfait-like sweet Savarin and the famous Nunobiki Herb Burger, on top of a selection of classic herb tea.

At the Fragrance Museum, visitors can learn about the history of fragrances and experience the scent of different natural essential oils. Herb guide tours are available every day, and you can participate for free without a reservation.

If you are tired from walking around the gardens, you can lay down on the hammocks or relax your feet in the footbaths set up throughout the park.
Access to Kobe Nunobiki Herb Garden is about 10 minutes by ropeway. On the gondola, you can overlook the city of Kobe and the ocean in all directions.

    我真的很推薦喜歡花花草草的人們來此香草花園,雖然門票+纜車也是一筆費用,但是這裡有所呈現的花草之美,很多可以參觀,另外你可以在咖啡廳優閒喝杯香草茶吃點點心感受這氛圍,旅遊的疲憊瞬間都可以消除了!

  • Chi Yun214

    歐風式建築花園,都是賣一些香草和周邊商品,淡淡香味撲鼻而來植栽整理得很漂亮。

  • natumeちゃん

    花園的門票加上來回䌫車總共$1400/人,費用不便宜,但上來後會發現絕對值回票價。

  • 茜茜922

    園區的主人把花都照顧得很漂亮,很適合拍網美照。

  • 余若樺

    整個山頭充滿著香草還有其他的花卉,除了欣賞大自然風貌也可眺望市區及神戶港,推薦搭纜車到山頂後,慢慢走下來欣賞沿途美景。
