This area, born 30 years after the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, will weave together the “tradition and innovation” of Kobe Port’s history and future development, while providing visitors with moving experiences and creating new attractions and urban development for Kobe. With a restaurant zone that can be used daily and the symbolic “TOTTEI PARK” on the south side of the arena, offering panoramic views of Mount Rokko and Kobe Port, this is a fun outing spot you can enjoy 365 days a year.
