Kobe City is not far from Osaka and Kyoto but it is less visited than these Cities but I loved it and I’m so glad I visited.
I had 2 days to see as many things to do in Kobe as I could. I started off on a walking tour around Nada neighbourhood with my Hostel – Maya Guesthouse. Then I headed into Downtown Kobe to Nunobiki Waterfalls just behind Shin Kobe Station and then to Chinatown which has lots of nice street food and I sampled the Sesame Balls and a Sweet Piggy Dumpling!
I walked the 10 minutes to Kobe Harbour Port where I could see the Kobe Port Tower, BE KOBE Sign, the Ferris Wheel and loads of interesting buildings.
To hide from the rain I headed into Kobe Harbourland and the Mosaic Building which is full of restaurants. Once the rain cleared I saw a great sunset in Kobe Harbour.
Kobe is sandwiched between the Ocean and Mountains so the next day I took the Cable Car and Ropeway up to Mount Maya to see an amazing view over Kobe.
This is a popular place to visit in Kobe at night-time too to see the City and a lot of Kansai all lit up!
