#DomesticTravel Kobe Harborland Kobe Anpanman Children's Museum & Mall I went to the Kobe Anpanman Children's Museum in May. If you get off at the Hankyu Kobe Sannomiya station, you will pass through Kobe Harborland to get to the Anpanman Museum. The interior of Kobe Harborland is very beautiful and there are several photo spots, but as you go towards the Anpanman Museum, the number of Anpanman figures increases. When you get out onto the ground, there are stone statues of Anpanman characters all over the road to the museum! They seem to be slightly different, so if you're interested, check them out! ■Location 1-6-2 Higashikawasakicho, Chuo-ku, Kobe, Hyogo Prefecture ■Access 8 minutes on foot from JR Kobe Line "Kobe Station" 13 minutes on foot from "Kobe Kosoku Railway" (Kobe Kosoku Railway) ■Ticket price Admission ticket (ages 1 and over) 2,000-2,500 yen ■Opening hours ・Museum 10:00-18:00 Last museum entry 17:00 ・Shopping mall 10:00-18:00 ■Closed days New Year's Day/Maintenance closed days ＜2023＞ September 12th (Tue)・December 5th (Tue) ＜2024＞ January 1st (Mon)・February 27th (Tue)-29th (Thu) *If there are any other maintenance or temporary closures, we will announce them on our website as soon as they are decided #KobeTourism #Kobe #AnpanmanChildren'sMuseum #KobeHarborland

After strolling around the Ijinkan area, it started to get dark, but it was still early and I wasn't hungry, so I went shopping at Kobe Harborland. Harborland is located near Motomachi Station. It is a large place that combines shopping, food, entertainment, and hotels. It is also a great place to enjoy the night view of Kobe Port. Harborland's entertainment facilities include the Ferris wheel and the Anpanman Museum, so you can bring your children here to play for a whole day. Since my sister and I are adults and didn't have children with us, we just took photos outside the museum. There are many stores in Mosaic Shopping Center, including Kiddyland, which is loved by children, Sylvanian Families Store, Calbee Store, Kobe's famous Frantz, etc. It is definitely a shopping paradise for buying Kobe souvenirs. And there aren’t too many people here, so it’s much more comfortable than shopping in Shinsaibashi and Umeda in Osaka. My sister and I bought Kobe curry, Calbee snacks, Japanese paper crane earrings, etc. here. If Kobe wasn't the first stop of the trip, I might have bought more. In fact, Harborland has not only shops for shopping, but also many restaurants. But we planned to go to another place to eat tofu dishes, so we didn't stay in Harborland for dinner. All in all, Harborland is a place that is fun for all ages. I suggest that next time you travel to Kansai, consider taking the Hankyu train or JR from Osaka to Kobe for about half an hour. --------- 📬 Kobe Harborland 1-6-1 Higashikawasaki-cho, Chuo-ku, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture #Harborland #kobeharborland #Kobe #calbee #frantz #AnpanmanMuseum #SylvanianFamilies #Motomachi #GreatPlacesInJapan

This is Harborland, a representative commercial facility in Kobe. It is a general term for many buildings and facilities, but when I come here, I look forward to the road that leads to the harbor. I always say hello to Presley and head to the Brick Warehouse and Mosaic, and the atmosphere gets better. It's been 30 years since Harborland was built! I hope it will continue to welcome travelers as a symbol of the wonderful city of Kobe. #Kobe #Harborland #Mosaic #Presley #KobeTrip

If you are planning a visit to the Kansai area, Osaka and Kyoto are always good choices but here I added up beside the Osaka castle. You should add Kobe to the list. don't forget to visit Mitsui Outlet Kobe if you want to get many discount items.

If you go to Osaka, don't just go to Kyoto, go to Kobe too. The night view of Kobe is the best.

#springitinerary if you’re in Kobe this spring and want a laid-back day by the water, Harborland is the perfect spot. The weather is just right which makes walking along the waterfront super relaxing. You’ve got everything here: cute cafes, cool shops, and that massive Ferris wheel for awesome city and ocean views. The vibe is mellow, with live music sometimes playing and people just chilling by the bay. It’s a great place to grab snacks, do some window shopping at Umie, or sit by the water and people-watch. As the sun sets, the whole place lights up and looks magical with the reflections on the water. Whether you're on a date, with friends, or just exploring solo, Harborland has that easygoing spring energy that makes you want to stay a little longer. Definitely a feel-good spot for a spring day out.

#cityplaybook #familytrip #localguides #postandearn Kobe Harborland is one of the most iconic and lively waterfront areas in Japan, offering a perfect blend of history, leisure, and modern city vibes. Located right along the Port of Kobe, this vibrant district features shopping malls, stylish cafes, charming promenades, and cultural attractions — all framed by the beautiful ocean backdrop. Whether you're walking hand-in-hand along Gaslight Street, enjoying views from the giant Ferris wheel, or shopping in the sprawling Umie complex, Kobe Harborland delivers a full-day experience for every kind of traveler.

#cityplaybook If you’re looking for a relaxed but colorful day out, Kobe has just the right mix of flavors, sights, and photo-worthy moments. I started the day in Nankinmachi, Kobe’s compact and vibrant Chinatown. It’s the perfect place to snack and wander—there’s always something sizzling, steaming, or being freshly made right in front of you. I even found an animal-shaped pork bun that was almost too cute to eat (almost!). After filling up on street food, I spent the evening at Harborland, one of Kobe’s best spots for a night walk. Watching the city lights shimmer across the water was the perfect way to wind down. Calm, beautiful, and just the right amount of romantic—even solo. Why I recommend Kobe: ・You get to enjoy fun, tasty street eats by day and dreamy harbor views by night ・Everything is walkable, photogenic, and full of personality 📍Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan #Kobe #Nankinmachi #KobeChinatown #Harborland #JapanEats #StreetFoodJapan #CityLights #SlowTravel #PerfectDay #CityGuide

The Port of Kobe is one of Kobe's most iconic sights, full of charm both during the day and at night. This time we visited in cool weather and the overall feeling was very comfortable and pleasant. There are many walking paths along the port area, which are perfect for strolling. Walking along the harbor where the sea breeze blows, admiring the Kobe Port Tower, Kobe Bridge and the anchored luxury cruise ships, the view is vast and the mood is particularly relaxed. In the evening, the setting sun shines on the sea, the scenery is romantic and charming, very suitable for taking pictures. There are many specialty cafes and restaurants near the harbor, where you can enjoy delicious food or coffee while admiring the sea view, which is a good choice to relax. When the lights come on at night, Kobe Port takes on a completely different atmosphere. The night view is very famous and is a beautiful scenery that cannot be missed in Kobe. The cooler climate makes the entire trip more pleasant, without the discomfort of being hot or cold, and is perfect for outdoor activities and leisurely walks. Overall, walking in Kobe Port in the cool weather and enjoying the sea and night views are all wonderful experiences that will make you linger.

If you visit Kobe, we recommend a trip to the spots where the exotic atmosphere and natural beauty of a port city come together! First, take the Rokko Cable to Mt. Rokko. After a swaying ride in the retro cable car to the top of the mountain, you will be greeted with a spectacular view of Kobe's cityscape and the sea. At Mt. Rokko Garden Terrace, you can relax while touring stylish cafes and shops, and it is especially romantic at dusk. If you like hot springs, you can't miss Arima Onsen. Known as one of the three oldest hot springs in Japan, the gold and silver springs each have their own medicinal properties and will soothe your tired body. Returning to the port area, you can enjoy shopping and the night view at Harborland. The night view of Kobe from the Ferris wheel is truly the highlight of the trip. In Nankinmachi, you can enjoy eating authentic Chinese food on your way to a foreign country, which will further enhance your exotic mood. If you want to feel the history and culture, head to Kitano Ijinkan-gai. This area lined with foreign architectural styles is also popular as a photo spot. Another attractive feature of the Nunobiki Herb Garden is its accessibility via ropeway. Seasonal flowers and fragrant herbs bloom in the mountaintop garden, allowing you to spend a leisurely time here. Kobe is packed with nature, gourmet food, and different cultures, so no matter how many times you visit, you'll always find something new! #KobeSightseeing #MountRokko #ArimaOnsen #Harborland #Nankinmachi #KitanoIjinkan #NunobikiHerbGarden #ScenicSpots #KobeGourmet #WeekendTrip #DomesticTrip

#Get a discount without relying on luck Many people who go to Kobe will miss meat, but we went for many days and eating only meat would be boring 😅 When we came to Japan, we wanted to try crab legs. We had eaten at Don in Osaka before, but it wasn't enough. There weren't many crab leg buffets until we found this place. The atmosphere is good, the price is good, the taste is good, the crab legs are fresh but cold, Japanese slices, the buffet line is great, especially the desserts, both Japanese and Western. The water is okay. We ordered 5 glasses of milk tea 😆 There is also alcohol (beer, sake ++ add 1999 yen). My husband tried beer and said the beer was good (if not buffet, 600 yen per glass). Hot Japanese/European style food, always refilled, freshly cooked and displayed in front of the shop (through glass). The taste is not strong-bland, it might not be to the taste of most Thais, but the ingredients are fresh (I recommend the large steamed fish, I don't know what it is, but the meat is sweet and bouncy, the grilled fish cheek is also good, the meat is very firm). Those who are on a clean diet should like it. (For us, if there is seafood sauce, lime, and a little bit of chili, it is awesome.) Normal sushi, adult price including water is less than 4,000 yen, children have 2 prices, from 3-6 years old and 7+. The name of the shop is fisherman's market, located on the 2nd floor of Mosaic shopping mall in front of Kobe Bay, beautiful view too 😄 I recommend booking in advance through Google, if the table is not full, you can enter before the time (I saw that there are tour groups from 6 pm - 7 pm, there are a lot of people during that time). We were there from 6 pm until 8 pm, paid first, and then sat as long as we wanted. There was no one to clean the table or waiter to serve, you have to clean the plates and separate the trash after eating. For us, the crab legs, dessert, and milk tea are worth it 😁
