Art and Ocean Vibes in Kobe 🎨🌊

#cityplaybook Kobe isn’t just about great food and mountain views—it’s also a quiet haven for art lovers. The city’s coastal area offers a peaceful, creative escape that’s perfect for a cultural stroll. First stop: the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art, a striking building designed by architect Tadao Ando. Don’t miss the “Umi no Deck” (Ocean Deck)—it’s the perfect place to take a break while looking out over the water. Just a short walk away is the Kobe City Museum of Art (Kobe YUKARI no Museum), a smaller but inspiring spot with exhibitions tied closely to Kobe’s creative roots. Why I recommend Kobe for art lovers: ・You can enjoy high-quality art with the ocean breeze in the background ・The area is calm and uncrowded—perfect for slow travel and inspiration 📍Nada Ward, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan #kobearttrip #hyogomuseumofart #uminodeck #kobeyukarimuseum #tadaoando #artandarchitecture #seasideculture #hiddenjapan #cityplaybook
