Recommended Attractions
Recommendations for famous sightseeing spots in Kobe to make your independent trip even more enriching
Ikuta Shrine
Located in Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture, Ikuta Shrine has a history of more than 1,800 years. It is even said that the name “Kobe” itself originated from Ikuta Shrine. In addition to being known for blessings in love and relationships, Ikuta Shrine is also a popular place for Hatsumode (Japan’s first shrine visit of the New Year), where many worshippers come to pray for health and career luck.
Well-known Japanese entertainers Tomonori Jinnai and Norika Fujiwara once held their wedding here, and in recent years many athletes have also come to pray for victory, showing that Ikuta Shrine has become a place of faith for many people.
Kobe Sannomiya Center Street
Kobe Sannomiya Center Street is the central hub of Kobe’s transportation network. The name “Sannomiya” comes from the Sannomiya of Ikuta Shrine (the Sannomiya area was once part of Ikuta Shrine’s grounds and was once called Kobe, which is also the origin of the city’s name). Sannomiya Center Street is a large covered shopping arcade. From Flower Road to Koikawa-suji, the street is lined with fashion brand stores, home furnishing shops, variety stores, restaurants, and many other shops of all sizes.
Nankinmachi Chinatown
This is the common name for a narrow area located between Motomachi-dori and Sakaemachi-dori in Chuo Ward, Kobe City, and is also the registered trademark of the Nankinmachi Shopping Street Promotion Association. It is a Chinatown full of Chinese atmosphere. Along with Yokohama Chinatown and Nagasaki Shinchi Chinatown, it is one of Japan’s three major Chinatowns. Within an area about 200 meters east-west and 110 meters north-south, there are around 100 shops gathered together.
Mount Rokko
Mount Rokko, at an elevation of 931 meters, is the highest peak in the Rokko mountain range and is usually accessed by cable car. Various facilities are spread across the mountain, making it not only a place to enjoy a wide range of outdoor activities, but also one of the must-visit spots for taking in Kobe’s romantic night view.
There are many attractions on the mountain worth visiting. For example, the “Rokko Music Box Museum” offers healing for both body and mind amid the fresh highland air and the charming sounds of music boxes. There is also the “Rokko Alpine Botanical Garden,” where you can see about 1,500 species of alpine and cold-region plants from around the world.
Kobe Harborland
Kobe Harborland is located in the waterfront area and covers about 18.5 hectares. It is a comprehensive tourist destination with many large-scale commercial complexes. One of its facilities, the “Kobe Brick Warehouse,” is a cargo warehouse built in the latter half of the 1890s. Today, it is not only a popular shopping center, but also a well-loved sightseeing spot with a strong sense of history and exotic atmosphere. By riding the “Mosaic Ferris Wheel,” you can overlook the streets of Kobe and Mount Rokko from above and enjoy about 10 minutes of a stroll in the sky.
Arima Onsen
Arima Onsen is a natural hot spring that flows from the northern foot of Mount Rokko. It is one of the most famous hot springs in the Kansai region and also a historic hot spring mentioned in the Nihon Shoki and Fudoki, ranking among the “Three Ancient Hot Springs of Japan.” It is especially well known because Toyotomi Hideyoshi often came here to bathe and recuperate.
Arima Onsen’s abundant natural surroundings make you forget that you are still within Kobe City, and its many famous inns and charming hot spring town atmosphere attract large numbers of tourists. Because transportation is convenient, it is also easy to visit as a day trip. You can also take a ropeway directly from Mount Rokko.
Meriken Park
Meriken Park was built in 1887 and is a park facing Kobe Port. With its open and spacious grounds, it is a great place to relax both body and mind while enjoying the refreshing sea breeze. Around the park are tourist attractions such as Kobe’s landmark “Kobe Port Tower” and the “Kobe Maritime Museum,” which displays information related to ships.
In addition, the boarding point for Kobe Port sightseeing cruises is near the park. If you have enough time, it is recommended to take a sightseeing cruise and enjoy the charming scenery of Kobe Port from the sea.
