I visited the iconic Kobe Port Tower and headed straight for the rooftop open-air deck. The experience was truly spectacular!
From the roof, I could view the entire city of Kobe without any obstructions. The contrast between the lush green Rokko Mountains on one side and the sparkling blue sea of Kobe Port on the other was absolutely stunning. Feeling the breeze while taking in the 360-degree panoramic view was the highlight of my trip.
The view is incredibly fantastic and gives you a real sense of the city's unique geography.

An incredible walk from Chinatown to Kobe Port! I was truly amazed by the modern and spacious atmosphere here. The waterfront is wide, clean, and has plenty of benches to sit and enjoy the sea breeze. At night, the illuminated Kobe Port Tower and the Mosaic Ferris Wheel make the view magical and romantic. Right nearby is the bustling Harborland and Umie shopping area, filled with delicious food and stunning photo spots. A must-visit when you are in Kobe!
When someone asks me which part of Japan do I have most fun in, Kobe will actually be in my answer. And part of the reason is due the great time I have at Kobe Port Tower and Mosiac Big Ferris Wheel.
It feels so exhilarating standing at the top of the tower, with the strong winds blowing around us, metal mesh flooring below us and glass walls allowing us to have unblock view of Haborland and Kobe. It does feel like there is no barrier between us and the edge of the tower. So imagine that level of excitement when looking at Haborland from 108m high up above ground.
The fun doesn’t end at the your around the top of the tower. As we go down by a winding stairs to each level below, we discover digital art galleries. We create lots of beautiful fireworks by tapping the wall. We also add pastel cheery colours to the funky artwork on the wall.
