Kitano-cho is a city district at the foot of the Rokko mountain range where many Western business people settled down in the second half of the 19th century, after the Port of Kobe was opened to foreign trade.
A number of former mansions of Western residents remain in the area and are open to the public. Most charge an admission fee of about 300 to 500 Yen.
The area also offers many pleasant cafes, restaurants and boutiques and is a favorite among young Japanese couples.
