Study in Kobe
A port city with young, outgoing, and welcoming residents, Kobe is the perfect blend of traditionalism and western influences all with a very Japanese approach. Kobe is a diverse, compact city, with both urban functionality and rich natural surroundings.

An international city:
Since the opening of its port in 1868, the city residents include people from 144 counties and regions around the world. Because of the long history as a port city, Kobe has a root of accepting of a variety of different lifestyles and culture.

Otaku Town:
Kobe’s “Otaku Street”, Center Plaza is two floors of shops packed with subculture goodies. Anime and game shops have been here for over 20 years and the number of shops has recently seen a rapid increase. Our favourite part is the rows and rows of “gacha-gacha”toy vending machines lined up in front of the shops.

Enjoy the best of Japan:
Arima Onsen is both one of Japan’s “Three Oldest Onsen” and one of Japan’s “Three Famous Onsen”. The nightscape from Mount Maya is ranked as one of the “Three Major Night Views of Japan. The eastern part of Kobe is one of the best known sake-making regions in Japan, producing more than a quarter of the country’s sake. Himeji Castle is both a national treasure and a UNESCO world heritage site.
