What other travelers are saying about Kobe Meriken Park
Spacious, free, and relaxing. The iconic Kobe Port Tower and Kawasaki Maritime Museum become more scenic with the calm and refreshing sea on the other side.
Great park and many events! We love to go there with our children and dogs.
Also there are sometimes cruise ships from Germany, Netherlands or America. Here was the cruise ship Phönix Reisen from Germany
Meriken Park (メリケンパーク, Meriken pāku) is a waterfront park located in the port city of Kobe, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan. The park features the Kobe Port Tower, Kobe Maritime Museum, and a memorial to victims of the Great Hanshin earthquake. The name of the park comes from the word "American," which was commonly translated as "Meriken" during the Meiji era.
