Art On MountainRokko Shidare Observatory
A dome-shaped observatory made of Japanese cypress that looks like a work of art on Mt. Rokko. The appearance is also nice, but if you go down the stairs to the basement, there is a wind room that is the trunk of the observatory. The inside of the Rokko Shidare tube is as cold as a cave, and the wind seems to play music. When you look up, it's a wonderful space with fantastic light coming in.
