Kobe Harborland
Nice view of the harbor is worth to see. There is a tower called Kobe Port tower, and around this district, there are so many shopping center or dining as well. You also can take big Ferris Wheel to enjoy the view of harbor and city of Kobe. Kobe is less crowded compared with other Kansai area like Osaka or Kyoto. It is perfect for chilling out. There is also “Ann pann man Museum”, museum for one of the most famous animation in Japan.
