When traveling to Kansai, Japan, you can't miss the night view of Kobe! As soon as I arrived in Kobe in the evening, I went to see the beautiful night view! If you have time while traveling to Osaka, stop by Kobe too ㅎㅎ Kobe Tower is close to where there are many hotels. I felt so good while taking a walk and enjoying the night view of Kobe. It was really close to walk from Kobe Tower to Mosaic! Unfortunately, most restaurants were closed by 10 PM.. When I went to Kobe I had a 2-day Hankyu Pass, so I traveled from Kyoto and went straight to Kobe in the evening!! I took the Hankyu Line Kyoto (Kawaramachi) - Juso Station - Kobe (Sannomiya). If you get off at Juso, the directions to Kobe are clearly marked ^^ If it's difficult, you can transfer to Umeda instead of Juso Station to go to Kobe. #Japan travel #Kobe #Kobe travel #Kansai travel #Kansai #Osaka vicinity

Kobe, a port city in Kansai, is another famous city in Japan where many Thais are familiar with the name of that famous beef. This city doesn't just have good beef.

On top is a 360-degree observation deck where you can see a view of Kobe City and the port with the Rokko Mountains as a backdrop.

The "BE KOBE" display is an important landmark of Kobe City, created to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the opening of the Kobe Port. This monument was established in Meriken Park in 2017 and has become a popular spot for tourists to take photos and check in. The design of this display was inspired by the resilience shown by the people of Kobe after the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, and symbolizes the charm and humanistic spirit of Kobe. The display is located in Meriken Park at 2 Hatabacho, Chuo-ku, Kobe City. The surrounding environment is beautiful and suitable for walking and leisure.

Just visited Kobe, Japan this April and it was right choice for me and my family. The city was stunning and less crowded. Kyoto, Osaka and Nara are just less yhan an hour to reach via train. Suggesting to plan your trip and to look for some JR pass, so you can enjoy unlimited ride for JR train during your trip.

Osaka Kaiyukan, a famous spot in Kansai, Kobe's Ijinkan and the beautiful Kobe Port. And Himeji Castle, the most beautiful castle in Japan. If it were usual, I would have gone to Kyoto and Nara, but I took a different route. Kansai has many hidden attractions. 🏯🤭

Kobe Port Tower is one of the landmark buildings in Kobe, Japan. It is located in the Kobe Port area and is famous for its unique red mesh structure and viewing function. Kobe Port Tower was built in 1963 and is 108 meters high. Its design was inspired by the shape of a traditional Japanese drum. The tower is made up of 32 red steel pipes interwoven to form a beautiful hyperbolic structure, which is particularly eye-catching under the lights at night. There is an observation deck in the tower, which visitors can reach by elevator and overlook the panoramic view of Kobe Port, Mount Rokko and the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in the distance. Kobe Port Tower is not only a tourist attraction, but also a symbol of Kobe's prosperity as an international port. During the Great Hanshin Earthquake in 1995, Kobe Port Tower was affected to a certain extent, but after restoration, it was reopened and became one of the symbols of the city's revitalization. In addition, there are also attractions such as the Maritime Museum and Meriken Park around the Kobe Port Tower, which together constitute the core tourist area of ​​Kobe Port and attract many tourists to visit. #AprilGoodDestinations2025 #JapanGood Places #Kobe

Whether it's food, attractions or atmosphere, Kobe is full of surprises and satisfaction. This trip to Kobe allowed me to deeply appreciate the unique charm of this city and also allowed me to leave with a lot of happy memories. --- #### **1. Kobe Port: Where romance and vitality meet** Kobe Port is one of the symbols of the city. During the day, you can enjoy the blue sea, blue sky and modern buildings. At night, it is decorated with bright lights and full of romance. **Kobe Port Tower** and **Kobe Maritime Museum** in the port area are must-visit attractions, especially climbing the Kobe Port Tower and overlooking the entire port area, which will make you feel open-minded. There are also many restaurants and cafes in the port area. You can sit by the sea, enjoy a cup of coffee, watch the ships passing by, and feel the sea breeze.

This time I chose a long-established Kobe beef restaurant and tasted teppanyaki Kobe beef. The beef melts in your mouth, the fat is evenly distributed, and the taste is delicate, it is simply the ultimate enjoyment for your taste buds. Although it’s expensive, it’s definitely worth a try! --- #### **3. Kitano Ijinkan: A romance that transcends time and space** The Kitano area retains many Western-style buildings from the Meiji era, which were once residences of foreign merchants and are now used as museums or cafes. Walking on the streets of Kitano, it feels like traveling back to 19th century Europe, full of exotic customs. I especially recommend **Kazami Chicken House** and **Moegi no Kan**. These two buildings are representative of the Kitano area and are great for taking photos. --- #### **4. Arima Onsen: A great place to relax** **Arima Onsen**, about an hour's drive from downtown Kobe, is one of the oldest hot springs in Japan. The hot spring water here is of excellent quality and is divided into "Golden Spring" and "Silver Spring". After soaking in it, your skin will be smooth and your body and mind will be greatly relaxed. There are also many food stalls and souvenir shops on the hot spring street, where you can enjoy local food while taking a walk. --- #### **5.

After taking the cable car up the mountain, you will see a city landscape with brilliant lights, as if the stars have fallen to the earth. Such a romantic scene makes people sigh: "Kobe's night is so beautiful!" --- #### **6. Kobe’s multicultural society** Kobe is a multicultural city with Japan's oldest mosque, European-style buildings, and a vibrant Chinatown (Nankinmachi). It is also a special experience to taste xiaolongbao and fried dumplings in Nankinmachi and feel the charm of Chinese culture. --- #### **7.

Kobe's landmark, Kobe Port Tower, was built in 1963. The tower is 108 meters high and has a hyperboloid structure, resembling a waist drum. Admission to Kobe Port Tower is JPY 1,200 (JPY 600 for ages 65 and over). The top of the tower has an indoor observation deck and an outdoor observation deck on the highest floor, with elevators directly to the indoor observation deck. Climbing the tower before sunset is undoubtedly the best time to enjoy the view, so there are many tourists at this time, and you need to queue for the elevator. When you reach the top floor, the sun is setting. Both indoor and outdoor observation decks offer 360-degree panoramic views of Kobe Port and Kobe City, with views of Mount Rokko and Osaka Bay in the distance. The weather was excellent, visibility was superb, and the warm, soft light at sunset made the scenery clear and beautiful.

'Quick, switch to the blue lens! There's a pirate ship in the harbor!' Little Hang was frantically turning the filters on the 360-degree observation window when Mom suddenly exclaimed, 'The Ferris wheel turned into a giant strawberry daifuku after switching to the pink lens!' Inside the tower, the 'Light and Shadow Maze' transformed the whole family into glowing jellyfish. Dad bumped into a mirror but tried to play it cool, saying, 'I was just testing the reflection angle on purpose!' The most surprising part was the 'Sky Mailbox' on the top floor. As soon as Little Sister dropped a postcard, fireworks suddenly lit up the harbor—'Look! Grandpa Harbor is stamping our postcard!'

Kobe Port Tower should be beautiful when it is lit up at night This time we didn't stay until night and visited the surrounding attractions. This should be the attraction farthest from the subway station on this tour Fortunately, my mother still has the strength to support herself 😂 There are several large shopping malls connected together here. There is an Anpanman Children's Museum & Shopping Plaza 3 floors, right? Kids will probably go crazy if they come here😂 There are things to play, eat and buy Next to it is a brick warehouse similar to Kaohsiung Pier 2. It feels like nothing, no need to come specially😅 There is a big Ferris wheel #モザイク大観覧車 It should be beautiful at night. There are really not many people in Kobe on weekday afternoons. Walking around is very comfortable although it is a bit rainy But it didn't rain heavily, thank God. #There are a lot of Anpanman stuff along the way from the subway station #JanuaryGoodPlaces2025 #Kobe #AnpanmanChildren'sMuseum
