Tajima is the most northerly and mountainous district of Hyogo, with substantial snowfall during the winter months. It's a popular location for hiking & skiing in the winter, and swimming & kayaking in the summer. The Takeda Castle Ruins, located in Asago City, are a designated National Historic Site known as "the castle in the sky." Tajima is also well-known for Kinosaki Onsen, a hot spring town with 1300 years of history. Tajima is primarily a rural area, but it has recently taken steps to improve roads and other transportation systems to Kobe, Himeji, and other cities.
