Himeji CastleHimeji Castle, also known as "White Heron Castle," holds the distinction of being Japan's first UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site and is counted among Japan's national treasures. Unlike many historical buildings in Japan, Himeji Castle has never been destroyed or burnt down, making it one of the 12 original castles still standing in Japan today. Visitors to the castle can explore its extensive grounds and climb to the top floor for a breathtaking panoramic view of the surrounding area. Iakuya Shiji Park preserves the former residential area of the Iakus, offering visitors a glimpse into the daily life and cultural heritage of the Japanese during that era. It's a great place to immerse oneself in history and experience Japan's rich cultural past firsthand.

Koko-enAfter descending from Himeji Castle, visitors can take a leisurely stroll through Kokoen Garden, conveniently located adjacent to the castle grounds. Kokoen Garden is renowned for its meticulously designed landscape, divided into nine distinct areas, each showcasing different styles from the Edo period. Before returning to the bus, visitors have the opportunity to enjoy a leisurely lunch (not included) at one of the nearby shops or restaurants situated near the entrance of the castle area. This provides a relaxing way to conclude the visit, surrounded by the historical ambiance of Himeji Castle and its picturesque surroundings.

Karoyashikiato ParkWhen visiting Himeji Castle, a notable area to explore for dining options is Kouroen Former Residence Park. Here, you'll find a charming lineup of restaurants and souvenir shops. This park creatively repurposes Edo-period residences, transforming them into dining establishments where you can enjoy a meal amidst historical surroundings.
-
Arima OnsenThe next destination of the tour is the hot spring town Arima. Relax in the historic Arima Onsen, known for its therapeutic hot springs. Enjoy a quiet walk around this town, home to one of the three most famous onsen in the country. The entire area can be explored on foot and you can find old wooden houses, shrines and temples among other places worth a visit. (Not include entry tickets to the hot springs.)
-
Mt. RokkoOur final destination will be Mount Rokko, a popular spot in the Kansai region, offering breathtaking panoramic views. Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature and savor the tranquility of this mountainous retreat.
