Rokkosan Snow Park

A convenient ski resort on Mt. Rokko, about Approx. 60 minutes by car from central Osaka and 35 minutes from central Kobe. The compact slopes have gentle gradients, making it easy even for beginners to enjoy skiing and snowboarding. The on-site kids' area, Snow Land, offers snow play such as sledding, building snowmen, and target games with snowballs. It is completely separate from the ski slopes, which is a welcome safety feature.

It’s not too hard for beginners. The slopes aren’t long, and the difficulty level is low, so it’s great for a first time skiing or just casually enjoying the snow. A lot of people come to ride sleds, build snowmen, and take pictures rather than seriously practice their skills.

Kikko Shrine

This shrine enshrines the ancestors of the Kikkawa family, former lords of the Iwakuni domain. Originally consisting of three separate shrines, it was unified in 1885 and built at its present location on the site of the family’s former residence. Shrines dedicated to ancestral spirits are rare in Japan, and its distinctive layout features the torii gate, shinmon gate, worship hall, offering hall, and main sanctuary all aligned in a straight line from south to north.

The shrine itself isn't very big, but it's super clean and has a real sense of history. There are tons of trees around, so walking here feels really relaxing. The torii gate, stone steps, and the small shrine building all have a great vibe. If you're lucky, you might catch a time when there's nobody else around—it's so quiet you can only hear the wind.
If you're already heading to Kikko Park for a stroll, it's definitely worth stopping by. It's a really chill little spot.

If you're worried about the strong flavor of beef intestines, you don't have to be here. They prepare everything really cleanly. I highly recommend their spicy broth—it's just a little spicy and really whets your appetite.
