When touring Kobe, visiting Kitano area, the old foreign settlement quarter, is a must. Its history dates back to the opening of Kobe Port (1868) to foreign trade.

There are around 20 old Western-style buildings open to the public, seeing them all would be a daunting task, but your local host will hand-pick for you the most suggestive ones.
