Why You Should Visit

Kobe Anpanman Children's Museum & Mall in Harborland is celebrating Halloween through the end of October. From October 1, a Halloween greeting at the Yanase Takashi Theater on the 2F museum floor lets kids meet Anpanman dressed as a wizard and Baikinman as Dracula. There's also a costume mask craft, a sticker rally, a limited photo booth on the 1F mall floor, and Halloween-only goods and food. It's all indoors, so the weather doesn't matter.
