This channel will report in detail on interesting places, from the bubble era heritage and Showa era heritage, to places that continue to shine, to ruins and old sites. This time, we will introduce Rokko Island, located in Kobe Port, Higashinada Ward, Kobe City. When the town first opened, Rokko Island was very popular with residents and tourists alike, being fashionable, glamorous, and functional. Now, more than 35 years later, if you type "Rokko Island" into Google search, the words "yabai" and "ghost town" appear as search suggestions, which is a bit worrying. This time, we will provide a detailed report on the current state of Rokko Island, which has declined to the point of being called a ghost town due to the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake and the economic downturn. ▼Please subscribe to our channel▼ / @showa_retro_tanbo ▼Recommended videos▼ [Bubble Heritage] A tragedy that struck a huge leisure facility...
