The prolonged rainy season finally ended and the summer season has just begun here in Kobe. At many facilities in the Mt. Rokko and Mt. Maya area, a wide variety of fun events that will be held in July and August are waiting for you to come over. For instance, Rokko athletic park GREENIA (opened this April), ROKKO Forest Sound Museum (just opened this month) are recommended. Also, remote work places and outdoor office properties are well-organized in the area. Mt. Rokko and Mt. Maya would be the best locations for you to play and unwind with your friends and family members or to creatively work alone or with your co-workers and relax together under the sky after work. Why don’t you take part in your favorite events and feel Kobe’s summer vibes with beautiful nature!
