There are several recommended locations for photography in Kobe.

I'm sure there are some customers who are wondering, "Where on earth would I be most satisfied with taking pictures?"

This time, I would like to introduce Meriken Park and Harborland.




-About the shooting location-

Meriken Park was created by reclaiming the former Meriken Wharf and Naka Jetty, which were built as unloading ports for cargo from overseas.

Harborland is the redeveloped area on the west side of Meriken Park.

This area is home to Kobe Port Tower, Maritime Museum, umie mosaic, the BE KOBE monument, a large Ferris wheel, and more.

It is easily accessible from Kobe Station or Minato Motomachi Station.



-Advantages of location photography-

Here are some details about shooting here.


1. You can shoot with a typical Kobe landscape

You can shoot with a typical Kobe landscape, a port city.

You can shoot with the newly reopened Kobe Port Tower in the background, or the BE KOBE monument or the city of Kobe in the background.

We recommend this for expressing the Kobe atmosphere in your photos.


2. You can shoot in any season

Although there are cherry blossoms and other trees planted in the area, there are not many of them.

In addition, there are various backgrounds such as the harbor, ships, and Ferris wheels that can be used for shooting in any season, so you can shoot in any season.




-Points to note-

Meriken Park Harborland is a wonderful place, but here are some points to keep in mind if you're considering taking photos there.


1. Events are sometimes held

Harborland often holds events, mainly on holidays.

The number of people there can increase when events are held.

If you let us know the date you would like to take photos, we will check with the administrator whether there is an event going on.

Meriken Park Harborland is large, so even when an event is held, you can choose a place with fewer tourists to take photos.


2. It's by the sea, so it's cold in winter

As it's by the sea, it is cold in winter.

In winter, we recommend going during the warmer hours of the day.
