ABOUT
About Kobe City
Kobe City, the capital of Hyogo, adopted municipal status in 1889 and became a government-designated city in 1956, and is made up of nine wards. It has grown as a port city ever since the Port of Kobe opened at the end of the Edo period. The city office is about a 3-minute walk south of Sannomiya-Hanadokeimae Station on the subway, and the 24th floor of its Building No. 1 has an observation lobby.
