Walking Tour: Higashi Yuenchi park and the Old Foreign Settlement

Outline

Attention International Students Staying in Kobe!

Established in 1868 at the same time as the opening of Kobe Port, Kyoryuchi allowed foreigners to live and do business freely.
Then, due to the revision of the Treaty, It was returned, it was called the“Old Foreign Settlement”. Now, we have arranged for a “Walking Tour of the Old Foreign Settlement” which hopefully would help you enjoy the cityscape with its exotic atmosphere.
You can intimately feel Kobe’s history through numerous historic sites and monuments scattered around the area.

In order to prevent the spread of new coronavirus infections, the number of people will be reduced to seven this fiscal year, and the use of a wireless guide system will prevent splashes. In addition, please cooperate in the temperature inspection and disinfection at the time of reception.

We look forward to your participation.
