Why You Should Visit
A one-day, mushroom-themed event on the plaza in front of the Forest Exhibition Hall at Kobe Municipal Forest Botanical Garden. It is co-hosted with the Environmental Science Club of Hyogo Prefectural Mikage High School, known as Japan's only high school club devoted to mushrooms, and visitors can join a mushroom quiz and a keychain-making workshop. A forest concert by the school's string ensemble, an outdoor tea ceremony by its tea club, and mushroom goods for sale round out the day. A good fit for families with nature-loving kids, or for anyone combining it with an early-autumn walk in the Rokko woods.
