Where Am I?

Kitano, Kobe, Japan

Well, I've given you one clue it's in Japan, but it looks like Europe. It's on the side of the mountains, but it's not far from the sea. It has lots of spacious properties, but it's in a city with not much space (even by Japanese standards!). The buildings here are old, but the rest of the city is very modern. It was once a very classy part of the city to live or visit, but it's looking a bit worse for wear these days. Give up? Highlight over the location line to find the answer. Also you can see a photo from the last time I went there in 1998 here.
“Where am I?” also had a couple of other meanings for the day, firstly I got lost about three times during the day! Secondly it was a day I took off and got away from my home in Kyoto, went up a mountain, and had a bit of think about where things are heading. After returning home I made a couple of changes to the way we do things in the church.
