#tripแจกโรงแรมฟรี
Kobe Harborland is an entertainment district along Kobe Port that opened in 1992, converted from the Minatogawa Cargo Station warehouse. It is now an important landmark with a variety of interesting activities, including shopping malls, shopping areas, and restaurants such as Mosaic, a Ferris wheel, Anpanman Museum, boat rides, and the Maritime Museum. If you have a lot of time and want to travel without rushing, you can hang out in this area all day, and even at night when the area is decorated with beautiful colored lights.
🚄 Travel
➡️ JR train: The nearest JR station is Kobe Station.
➡️ Subway (Kaigan Line): The nearest station is Harborland.
➡️ Kobe City Loop Bus: This is another convenient way to travel and see the city. The downside is that the last bus is only around 5-6 pm, so it is suitable for those who want to visit Harborland during the day. If you plan to return late, you will need to plan your return trip in another way.
🌆 If you want to focus on shopping, eating, and walking around the Harbour Walk, which is the place where you can see the Kobe Port Tower the most clearly, get off at stop 2 – Harborland (Mosaic).
⛴ If you want to take a boat (Seabus Fantasy), get off at stop 1 – Kamomeria.
🗼 If you want to climb up Kobe Port Tower or see it up close, get off at stop 17 – Nakatottei. However, the tower is currently closed for repairs, so you can’t enter it yet.
For those who want to go shopping, visit the museum, you will have to come during the day. But we focused on walking around, taking beautiful pictures, and stopping to eat, so we chose to come in the evening around 5-6 pm because we would be able to see the view both during the day and after the sun sets. We could do a little shopping before the shops closed (shops close at 8 pm). Then we walked around the Harbour Walk to see the view. If we only talk about the waterfront view, it is more beautiful at night than during the day. Both the sea and the surrounding lights make the atmosphere here very romantic, perfect for an evening stroll. It has become a popular spot for young Japanese people and tourists. If you like to travel in any style, try planning a trip. It is another place worth stopping by if you come to visit Kobe.
