Kobe Harborland, a premier commercial and sightseeing destination on the site of the former Japan National Railways Minatogawa Cargo Station, opened in October 1992 as a cultural hub that links the city and the sea.
Kobe Harborland features an array of large-scale commercial sites, from department stores, superstores, and speciality shops to hotels. This new cityscape, with its seaside sightseeing spots, pier, and pedestrian bridge so perfectly suited to its Kobe surroundings, has gained growing popularity among local residents as well as fans of Kobe from around the world.
