MK Guide Recommends
Opened in 2021, Kōbe Port Museum (KPM) anchors the city’s revitalized harborfront with a minimalist wave-like structure housing multiple cultural attractions under one roof. Inside, visitors will find átoa, an immersive art-aquarium hybrid where curated lighting and soundscapes meet jellyfish tanks and floating sculptures. Upstairs, TOOTH MART offers gourmet local food and upscale casual dining with a view. The space also hosts rotating exhibitions, events, and seasonal light installations—all within walking distance of Kobe’s Meriken Park and iconic Port Tower. A symbol of Kobe’s cosmopolitan identity, KPM is ideal for families, couples, or solo travelers looking to experience the sea, art, and architecture in one tide-slicked breath.
