Nishinomiya Kitayama Botanical Garden
This botanical garden is 15 minutes by bus from Hankyu Electric Railway's Shukugawa Station. Surrounded by lush mountains, it's packed with flower beds and is a model of urban greening and household horticulture. Visitors take in flower beds with rose and hydrangea plantings, border beds with a variety of blooming flowers throughout the year, beds with medicinal plants, and more. In addition to selling seasonal plants and their own soil mixture, they also welcome horticultural consultations with their experts. The elegant sukiyazukuri-style Kitayama Sanso adorns the grounds, as well as a Japanese garden with splendid scenery including a water cascade, Kitayama cedars, and colorful leaves in autumn.

- 贅沢な植物園
- 多分市民はご存知ないだろうが、珍しいほど贅沢な植物園であろう。職員なのかボランティアなのか、スタッフは半端ない丁寧な手入れの仕方をしていることがわかる。近所の六甲山頂には六甲高山植物園があって、テーマに準じた棲みわけがなされているのかもしれないが、薬草園・グラスガーデン、また市民ガーデンセンターや植物生産研究センターは西宮市のレベルの高さを感じる。入場無料であり、駐車場利用の場合は最初の一...

- 紅葉の季節になると植物園内の北山山荘が無料公開されます。なかなか見ごろのタイミングに訪れるのは難しいですが、きれいな紅葉を楽しむことができます。ただし施設の規模はさほど大きくありません。
