Kitano-cho area of Kobe is well known for it's European houses. Original European settlers built the houses on a hill overlooking the city. Many of them miraculously survived the earthquake of 1995, and are now (as they were before the earthquake) a popular tourist destination. Many of the houses cost 500yen to tour, but you can always just walk the neighborhood -popular amongst street artists.
