Is Kobe nearer to Osaka or Kyoto?
Could you clarify which location is closer to Kobe: Osaka or Kyoto? As a point of reference, Kobe is located in the Hyogo Prefecture of Japan, while Osaka and Kyoto are also major cities in the Kansai region. Is Kobe physically closer in distance to Osaka due to their geographical proximity, or does Kyoto hold a similar closeness despite being slightly further away? I'm interested in understanding the geographical relationship between these three cities and how they relate to each other in terms of distance.
