I loved the Edo-style architecture of the interior and exterior of the buildings. A lovely historical city with a peaceful and stylish ambience.

GRAND NIKKO AWAJI Tea ceremony workshop
Awaji Yumebutai is a cultural resort complex surrounded by the ocean and abundant nature. At one corner of the complex is a tearoom designed by world class architect Tadao Ando where you can experience the world of the tea ceremony. How would you like to experience authentic tea ceremony practices while learning about the history of the art?
The tea ceremony demo with two guests gave the experience a lot more meaning and made it essier for us to do it after. The modern architecture exterior of Tadao Ando, contrasted with the traditional tea ceremony interior, made the experience more special.

Azalee Hot Spring Experience
Takedao Onsen is easily accessible by car or train from the city centers of Osaka and Kobe. Koyokan Bettei Azalee is the only lodging facility in the hot springs area. Enjoy the healing, traditional Japanese experience of relaxing in a rich natural environment surrounded by mountains and fascinating scenery that changes with the seasons.
The outdoor onsen is so peaceful listening to the sounds of rushing water from the river and bird songs. The food is amazing too!

Kobe Private Charter
The Mozu-Furuichi Kofun Group, which includes the Mausoleum of Emperor Nintoku, was inscribed as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site in July 2019. A sightseeing flight is the only way to fully appreciate this remarkable site. The world’s largest burial mound, impossible to see in its entirety from the ground, is truly impressive. Viewing Osaka’s landmarks from the sky makes for a memorable experience. Convenient private car transportation is also included!
Seeing the geography of Osaka and Kobe was breathtaking. Of course, the tombs were fantastic but also the land, sea and surrounding mountains made it an excellent experience.
