Kobe Harborland, lined with multiple large scale multi-facility complexes, is the name of the area by the coast covering approximately 18.5 Hectares. One of the commercial complexes, “Kobe Brick Warehouse, HARBOR STORES”, was originally a cargo warehouse built in the late 1890s.
It is a popular tourist spot with an exotic and profound atmosphere and of course, shopping.
There are not only shopping facilities, but also a line up of various leisure facilities with limitless fun, such as “Kobe Concerto” where one can enjoy a lunch cruise, “Kobe Anpanman Children’s Museum & Mall” that are popular with children, “Mosaic Big Ferris Wheel” where one can overlook the cityscape of Kobe and Mount Rokko from the sky during a 10 minute revolution of the wheel.
The main street of Harborland, Japanese Zelkova-lined Kobe Gaslighting Street, is illuminated at night, blending in with the city’s nightscape, becoming a fantastic spot for night views.
