Amagasaki
Industrial city in Hyōgo Prefecture just west of Osaka, Amagasaki has a café and restaurant scene dense enough to reward a dedicated visit, and sits directly on the water with mountains within reach. Granted city status in 1916, it draws independent travellers looking for a less-visited base in the Osaka–Kobe corridor, with UNESCO World Heritage sites accessible across the wider region.
