Why You Should Visit

A two-month digital stamp rally that turns 42 shopping streets across Kobe into one 'adventure stage'. Clear each street's puzzle or QR-code treasure hunt to collect original stamps, then enter prize draws—Nintendo Switch 2, 1.5 kg of Kobe beef for sukiyaki and more, for over 50 winners—based on how many you have. Around 50 stamp spots; you can enter with just one stamp. No app download or personal registration: play from your phone's browser. Run by the Kobe Shotengai Federation, it is aimed mainly at families with preschool and early-elementary children, and spans the whole city.

NOTE
