Que faire à Kobe

Kobe's Absolute Essentials

Kobe's landscape spans from the 108-meter Port Tower and the Harborland waterfront to the historical Kitano Ijinkan district, home to late 19th-century foreign residences. The city features Japan’s first mosque, built in 1935, and the ancient Ikuta Shrine. Natural sites include the Nunobiki Falls, accessible via the Shin-Kobe Ropeway, and the Taisho-era Sorakuen Garden. Culinary highlights center on Nankin-machi Chinatown and world-renowned Kobe beef, while the Former Foreign Settlement preserves Meiji-era architecture like the 1880 American Consulate building.
