During spring break the other day, I went to Kobe to see my uncle and aunt who I hadn't seen in a while.
It's actually been 6 years since
Even though new things have been added, the "retro" characteristic of Kobe remains unchanged.
No matter how many times I stop by, I am always impressed by the truly beautiful cityscape.
Due to the lack of flat land, the distance between the sea and mountains is short.
Kobe, with its many charms, is one of Japan's leading "adult cities."
When you think of Kobe, you think of ``bread,'' ``cake,'' and ``Western food.''
We have food that is loved by children and adults not only in Japan but all over the world.
In addition, Motomachi Chinatown has pork buns, xiao long bao, shumai, etc.
Kobe has a lineup that can be called a food culture neverland.
Since I was a child, I have looked forward to visiting my uncle and aunt's house.
Discovering delicious-looking food that you wouldn't even get to see if you live in the countryside of Hiroshima.
It seems that the memories and memories of those days have been successfully passed on to my children, and I was very satisfied with the delicious food from start to finish.
Maybe it's because the older child wears glasses,
I'll keep it a secret that by the time I got home, I felt like I was acting with "Kudaore Taro."
This time, thanks to my aunt's arrangement, she ordered a loaf of bread from Le Pin , which I had always wanted.
We also stopped by "THE BAKE," an up-and-coming bakery highly recommended by my aunt, who is a bread fanatic.
He says he buys all the things he likes.
Although Fukuoka also has many bakeries and famous shops,
Kobe is considered to be one of the most competitive areas in the world, not just in Japan.
Shops appear and disappear over and over again.
A bakery that only offers delicious food won't last long.
The ones that remain are those that are always creative and ingenious to capture customers.
As you would expect from a town that loves bread so much, it's all really delicious.
However, Kobe is a city that is not only famous for food, but also for fashion and heavy industry.
There is the headquarters building of that famous brand,
We manufacture engines for vehicles that everyone will use, etc.
Along with neighboring Osaka, it is a city that feels like a craftsman.
Especially famous is our "KAWASAKI" .
The head office is in Akashi City, next to Kobe.
Kobe is home to ``Kawasaki World,'' which can be called a sacred place.
This is a museum where you can feel the history of Kawasaki, which can only be described as ``the best.''
Motorcycles, jet skis, bullet trains, airplanes, etc.
My younger child, who loves Shinkansen, gets excited by the large diorama.
It must have been the happiest performance in the history of the museum.
I'm the type of person who can look at dioramas without eating, so
The staff who made it will be a blessing in disguise.
Personally, as a former KAWASAKI rider, there is something about motorcycles that touches my heart.
The famous Z1 car you can see in the photo will make you fall in love with it as if you were looking at a work of art.
With the recent vintage boom, not only watches but also motorcycles are soaring in price.
The KZ1000 model I was driving is no longer easily affordable.
However, it seems that the number of thefts of motorcycles is increasing more than the price.
It seems like it's becoming something that people can't stand the smell of.
But it's part of the nature of bike lovers to want to ride again when we see a famous car.
If I could ride a motorcycle again someday, I would definitely like to ride a Z1 in this color.
After all, it doesn't matter how you do something good.
Everything about this bike is so perfect that I can't really complain.
The only thing I would like to complain about is the current price.
It's not easy to buy.
But it's not a bad idea to dream of the day you can get one,
Could someone please give it to me? (lol)
