  On this trip to Kobe, we made a special visit to the Kobe Anpanman Children’s Museum, and it definitely didn’t disappoint! As soon as we walked in, we saw tons of familiar and adorable Anpanman characters. From large figures and themed decorations to all kinds of play areas, every corner was full of childlike fun. It really felt like stepping into the cartoon world!

  This place is truly a paradise for kids. For little ones who love Anpanman, everything is exciting and great for photos. Just seeing all these cute characters makes you happy. It’s the perfect place to bring young children.

  Besides playing at the museum, there’s also a shopping mall next door. In addition to Mosaic Plaza, the huge umie shopping mall is right in front. Both buildings have plenty of stores, food, and places to rest, making it convenient to shop, eat, or take a short break. You could spend the whole day here without getting bored.

  Also, the Kobe Harbor Ferris wheel is right next to the Anpanman Museum. After exploring, you can ride the Ferris wheel and enjoy views of Kobe Harbor from above, adding a touch of romance to the trip.

  This stop is really great for a family trip. There’s not only a cartoon world that kids will love, but adults can also shop, enjoy good food, and take in the scenery. The whole family can have a great time!

  In Kobe's harbor area, besides enjoying the waterfront scenery, you can also stop by the Kobe Anpanman Children's Museum & Mall! This place is paradise for Anpanman fans. From the moment you enter, it's full of childlike fun, with familiar characters like Anpanman, Baikinman, and other adorable characters everywhere. Just looking at the decorations makes you want to take photos to remember your visit.

  Inside, there are many play facilities and interactive areas for children, where they can get up close to their favorite cartoon characters and enjoy the cheerful atmosphere. Even adults who are just accompanying their children will be drawn in by the cute settings and feel as if they've suddenly returned to their childhood!

  Besides the children's museum, the shopping mall next door is also well worth exploring. It has plenty of Anpanman-themed merchandise, from stuffed toys and stationery to all kinds of souvenirs. Anpanman fans are sure to have a great time browsing. If you're looking for souvenirs from Kobe, you can also see if anything catches your eye.

  Anpanman, who almost every child in Japan knows! I've heard that in many Japanese families, Anpanman's words sometimes work even better than Mom and Dad's, haha. No wonder there are so many Anpanman museums, themed attractions, and special trains throughout Japan.

  I also watched the Anpanman cartoon when I was little, and seeing the familiar characters again as an adult still brings a little sense of nostalgia. On this trip to Shikoku, I also planned to ride an Anpanman-themed train. Departing from Matsuyama Station, the train travels along the Yosan Line. Northbound trains go to Iyo-Saijo and Takamatsu, with some services continuing all the way to Okayama. Southbound trains head toward Iyo-Ozu, Yawatahama, and Uwajima. While enjoying the scenery of Shikoku along the way, adults can also relax and enjoy the fun of being surrounded by Anpanman.

  On our second day in Kobe, our first stop was the long-awaited Kobe Anpanman Children’s Museum & Mall! As soon as we walked in, the place was filled with Anpanman and all the familiar characters. My little one was so excited, screaming with joy and smiling nonstop.

  There were fun shows, interactive games, photo spots, and super cute limited-edition merchandise. Every corner made us want to take tons of pictures. It really felt like stepping into the world of the anime. It’s not just a paradise for kids—adults will find their inner child again, too.

  If you have an Anpanman fan in the family, this is definitely a must-visit spot in Kobe. You’ll come away with so many wonderful memories!

  My little one is a total Anpanman fan, and we finally brought her to the Kobe Anpanman Children’s Museum. The moment she walked in, her eyes lit up with excitement!

  Anpanman, Baikinman, Uncle Jam, and so many familiar characters were everywhere. It felt like stepping right into the animated world. There were photo spots with the characters, interactive games, exclusive merch, and adorable food, so both kids and adults had a blast.

  The museum is right by Kobe Port, and it’s easy to get to. It’s perfect for a half-day trip. Seeing my child’s happy smile made it clear we made the right choice. This is a dreamy must-visit spot for any Anpanman fan!
