Mount Rokko in Kobe will be holding the "Early Summer Flower Tour ROKKO Photographic Garden" for the first time from May 11th to July 31st at the Rokko Music Box Museum, Rokko Alpine Botanical Garden, Mount Rokko Country House, Rokko Shidare Nature Experience Observatory, Rokko Cable Car, Rokko Garden Terrace, and TENRAN CAFE.
Mount Rokko reaches its most beautiful green season of the year from May to July. This event will be held in early summer, when Mount Rokko is at its peak, allowing visitors to enjoy the charm of Mount Rokko, including its nature and views, with all five senses through the colorful flowers in full bloom and artistic photographs displayed outdoors. This year marks the first time the event has been held, and 10 photographers, including Ellie Omiya, Yohei Shimada, Yoshiko Yamamoto, Carol Erb, Richard Tuschman, and R.J. Kern, will exhibit their unique works across seven mountaintop venues.
By embracing outdoor photography exhibitions, which are not yet commonplace in Japan, the event aims to create a new, extraordinary landscape. The aim is to create a memorable outdoor photography exhibition that will allow not only those interested in photography, but also many people from Japan and abroad to enjoy a "photographic garden" adorned with nature and photographs.
During the event, a "4-venue combined ticket" (¥1,600 for adults, ¥800 for children) will be available for a limited time, allowing visitors to enjoy four of the four venues (Rokko Music Box Museum, Rokko Alpine Botanical Garden, Rokko Mountain Country House, and Rokko Shidare Nature Experience Observatory) at a discount. Advance tickets (1,400 yen for adults, 700 yen for children) are on sale from March 17th to May 10th at JTB, ePlus, and Ticket Pia. For more information, please check the website (http://www.rokkosan.com/rpg2018/).
