[2025 Kobe Attraction] Travel Guide for Venus Bridge (Updated Apr)

I've lived in Kobe for almost a year, and I just recently discovered this hidden gem! ✨Venus Bridge (ビーナスブリッジ) The moment I arrived, I was blown away by the scenery!✨ In the distance, the lights of Kobe Port twinkled, and nearby, the city's neon lights shone brightly. At twilight, it was dreamy and romantic! ⭕This is the perfect spot to overlook the Kobe night view. Known as a "lover's sanctuary," you can see the Kobe city area and the Kobe Port Tower.🌃💖 ⭕Love Lock Legend 🔐 Couples can hang a love lock on the bridge to symbolize eternal love! ⭕📸Compared to Mount Rokko, this place is less crowded and offers beautiful scenery, allowing you to enjoy the romance. ⭕It's free and easily accessible, either on foot or by car (there's a free parking lot)! 💡Useful Tips 1⃣️Golden Hour: Come in the evening to see both the sunset and the night view! 2⃣️Equipment Suggestions: Ladies, it's recommended to wear flat shoes as the mountain road is a bit steep! 3⃣️Weather Check: The mountain breeze is cool at night, so a jacket is recommended in spring and autumn for added comfort~ 📍1-4 Futatabisan, Chuo Ward, Kobe City 🚶‍♂️Transportation: About a 30-minute walk from JR/Hanshin Motomachi Station (with some uphill climbs) or take the Kobe City Bus to "Okura Mountain Park" station and walk for about 15 minutes.

After short metro trip from airport to downtown our exploring of Kobe started from city center because our hotel was next to Sannomiya station. Kobe is not big city and you can explore pretty much everything by walking around. We started with Sorakuen garden which is so peaceful and relaxing and after that of course we tried delicious Ramen, followed by walking around downtown, have coffee, checking architecture, small shops and etc. until evening. Day two was reserved for Kobe Port where are Kobe Tower, Be Kobe mark, cruise ships, big shopping mall and park. For dinner we tried Kobe Beef and one more time I must say food was delicious 😁 If you have more free time you should definitely visit Venus Bridge, football game of FC Kobe, Futabai Park and Herb Museum. #kobe #kobebeef #kobetrip #ramen #japan
