Tips from locals
There is nice architecture in this Park. You can also see the ruins from the great Hanshin earthquake from 1995 in this park. They have preserved the damage on purpose to show the extent of the damage. Across from the park is the Port tower and then comes Harbourland (UMIE, CONCERTO CRUISE) that has lots of shopping and restaurants !
Meriken Park is a nice waterfront park in Kobe's port area. Built on an outcropping of reclaimed land, the park is covered in grassy lawn and open courtyards dotted with a collection of modern art installations and fountains. It is home to some of the city's more iconic contemporary architecture such as the red Kobe Port Tower and the Kobe Maritime Museum.
