[Kobe Kitano Ijinkan] British Pavilion: Experience the leisurely life of the aristocracy!

The Kitano area overlooking Kobe Harbor is home to a variety of foreign merchants' residences, consulates, and unique neighborhoods. These non-Japanese buildings are collectively referred to as "Ijinkan." Kobe Kitano Ijinkan is full of exotic atmosphere. You can admire nearly 20 Ijinkans with different architectures and classical crafts from various countries. There are also various exotic foods nearby. We bought a package ticket (1500 yen/person). The package includes visits to the British Pavilion, Ben’s House (the residence of British aristocrat Ben) and the Long House (French Pavilion). Among them, the British Pavilion is the largest and most beautiful. We stayed there for a long time. The beautiful balcony, garden and romantic color scheme of the interior furnishings of the England Pavilion are perfect for taking photos and are also very appealing for an English afternoon tea. There is no afternoon tea here, but there is a bar in the England Pavilion where you can have a drink and enjoy the leisurely life of British aristocrats!
