\nOn July 16th, 2021, Rokko Forest Sound Museum was newly opened after renovation of the Rokko International Musical Box Museum that had been loved by Kobe locals for many years. The theme of Forest Sound Museum is \u201cOffering you touching and heartwarming music inside the forest\u201d. Today, we will show you around this unique and beautiful museum. You will surely feel something special that you\u2019ve never experienced before.\"\"We visited the museum in mid-July. As it is situated on Mt. Rokko, the weather was very nice and chilly and wonderfully bloomed hydrangeas welcomed us throughout the property on that day.
\n\"\"The Rokko Forest Sound Museum is also known as \u201cSIKI Garden ~Sound walking Path~\u201d. SIKI means four seasons in Japanese. The museum is composed of sound-related exhibitions, relaxing spaces, and 5 main areas where you can encounter a wide variety of seasonal flowers.\"\"\u25a0Sound exhibition: Marine bell
\nThe sound of the bell comfortably echoes all over the garden.
\n\"\"\u25a0Sound exhibition: Sound bench
\nSit back and unwind yourself on a bench while enjoying nice music tunes from the forest radio. There are 3 sound bench spots. Check out your favorite spot!
