KOBE Hon no Eki 2026 (3rd) | Belst Suzurandai Becomes a Bookstore for a Day

Why You Should Visit

For one day, Belst Suzurandai—the station building connected to Suzurandai Station in Kobe's Kita Ward—turns into a bookstore. Floors 1–3 fill with publishers, new and secondhand bookshops, used-book stalls and ZINE makers, offering everything from new releases to vintage finds. Now in its third year, it runs at a scale similar to last year. Held indoors rain or shine, and directly linked to the station, so weather is no concern. Great for book lovers and families looking to discover something to read.
