Small memorial park preserving traces of the 1995 Great Hanshin (Kobe) earthquake — ruined structures, plaques, and quiet planting create poignant, documentary scenes. Best visited early morning or late afternoon for soft side-light and long shadows; weekdays are quieter. The site is compact and generally accessible with short walks between features; parking is limited so use public transport if possible. No special entry fee; be mindful and respectful — this is a place of remembrance.
