The route from Kobe city to Arima Onsen, which crosses Mount Rokko and leads to Arima Onsen since ancient times, has been used by many travelers as the Arima Road to Arima Onsen.

Our ancestors' dreams of direct driving were not fulfilled, but even now, more than 90 years later, some of them remain as the Kobe Rokko Railway Rokko Cable Line, and are still being carried over as the modern Arima Michi.
