Kobe is known as a tourist spot. There is all kinds of information. You don’t know what to choose. If you read the report I wrote, you can catch recent trends. I want to really recommend these spots.

– View –

Shiosai Park

I highly recommend this great view there!! Seeing the mountain and Kobe’s downtown night view from the seaside is beautiful! Once you see it, you can see a new side of Kobe!

Marinpia Kobe

This is an outlet shopping mall with beautiful scenery! It is a beautiful place where you can see the Akashi-kaikyo Bridge. I recommend going during the evening twilight time.

Kobe Maya Viewline

Kobe is known for its night view. You can walk for a “Kirakira Komichi” and enjoy the view.

KOBE-Befuteki-tei

Kobe is known for its Kobe beef. This restaurant is reasonable and delicious! You can go there for any occasion. I love to go there with my family, but it’s also a perfect place for a date.

– Souvenir –

Ikkanrou

Nikuman of Ikkanrou (meat bun) is fluffy and juicy. I think they are larger than what you would expect. The dough is a little bit sweet and juicy on the inside. They are room temperature.

Kobe-Bocksun

Their cakes and cookies are delicious. I recommend a cookie for a souvenir. I like the tastes of these cookies:

• Marble (smells like chocolate)
• Sesame & soy sauce (aromatic)
• Wasanbon (the sugar is made in Kagawa and has a mild flavor)
