Know before you go
While the ropeway line can be long, it tends to move quickly.
Consider getting off at the halfway point first, then going to the top, to enjoy the full downhill ropeway view of Kobe and Osaka Bay.
The garden is especially beautiful in the fall, and visiting earlier in the day helps avoid long queues for the ropeway.
