Kobe is not a famous for tourists in Japan. So you can enjoy a travel dIfferent from Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. I take you 3 bars that you can not find alone, and you can experience that you have not tried many things before. Moreover those are bars with a unique style that can only be found in Japan. The first bar is "Tachinomiya" at near a railway alley. We have to drink and eat without seats, `STANDING`. :) The second bar is "Izakaya", the most popilar bar style of special atmosphere in Japan. There are rare Beer, Shochu or Awamori (Japanese distilled spirits). The third bar is Koryoriya which a Sake Sommelier do hospitality. They offer special and the most recommended Japanese Sake of the day. And you can try Japanese home made cuisines. Those are only known to local persons. All of those are my favorite and recommendation because there are few tourists come for no English menu. In particular, Koryoriya is unknown to tourists. So I belive you can make Special memories.
