Why You Should Visit
TOTTEI's inaugural Christmas event arrives at the waterfront! Experience a unique fusion of an authentic Christmas market and Kobe's first "climbable illumination" installation with panoramic views of Kobe Port.
The "Green Hill" transforms into a climbable illumination wonder in Christmas colors—a first for Kobe. From the hilltop, enjoy the magical combination of Kobe Port's night view and sparkling lights. The entire surrounding area glows in champagne gold, creating a festive atmosphere throughout the neighborhood.
Discover Christmas goods imported from Germany, hot wine, Christmas chicken, and other delightful foods and items. A 5-meter giant Christmas tree, wreath-making workshops, and ornament crafting await. Santa Claus will distribute sweets to children on December 24-25!
Create unforgettable Christmas memories in this open waterfront setting.
