Kobe Trip Chapter 13 - Going Back to Osaka

Finally, the festival are over and the crowd are dispersing. It was time that we have to return to Osaka (else we will be sleeping on the streets of Kobe), however, my Korean friend wasted no time but to take more photos before leaving the beautiful decorated Kobe.

As a matter of fact, we have been walking for hours since our arrival at Kobe in the afternoon, starting from Sannomiya. While we struggled to walk to back to the station, we managed to catch the last train back to Osaka.... for nice late night coffee and supper.
Well, although I had already developed the habits of having late night supper in Singapore, I just got more companions over here in Osaka, tasting Korean food. Cheers.

神戸ルミナリエ 第13話 帰る!!!(13.12.08)


大変の一日だった。。。家に帰る前に。。クリスマストリーを見つかった。また写真撮った。。駅について、最後の電車乗った。きょうはほんとうに楽しいの一日だ。。韓国の友達一緒にあそびだった。いくつの写真を撮ったが、バソコン壊れたので、もうみえなりませんですた。









Kobe Trip Chapter 11 - Kobe Port Tower

I had finish the Luminaire event and the crowd are dispersing and it is time for us to return to Osaka as well. While on the way back to the train station, we took a short glimpse at Kobe Port Tower before we left. The brightly lit red-coloured tower just stands out from the surrounding buildings and lit up part of the skies. What a beautiful scene !

About Kobe Port Tower

The tower completed its construction in 1963 and stands at 108 metres high that is built in the port city Kobe. The Kobe Port Tower is built with a hyperboloid structure design, which the structural strength is used to support an object high off the ground. The hyperboloid geometry is also often used for decorative effect as well as structural economy as seen on the red-coloured steel Kobe Port Tower. The tower has an observation deck at a height of 90.28 metres which provides a spectacular sight of the bay and surrounding area.

However, do take note that the tower are not open to the public everyday and you will need to pay an entrance fee of ¥700 for adult and ¥300 for children.

What happens below are just the funny things we did along the way

Kobe Trip Chapter 2 - Walking Through Motomachi

神戸ルミナリエ 第2話 元町通り
南京街は大丸の周辺に沿っての行く町だ。最初は鉄板焼きを食べたかったけど、みんなたちは空いているから、しようなかった。。。三宮駅から、元町まで、10分でもかからなかった。よかった。もうすぐにご飯食べられる。




Kobe Trip Chapter 1 - Sannomiya Station

火曜の時、友達と約束した通りに、神戸ルミナリエに行ってみるつもりだ。学校を終わって、すぐに友達を集めって、一緒に電車乗っていた。でもね、昼ごはん食べなかったので、お腹めちゃ空いてしまった。早く神戸に着きたいなあ。
神戸ルミナリエ 第1話 三宮駅

三宮駅から出て、すぐにOIOIやSOGOや大丸などのデパートがあった。何か大阪との感じがずいぶん違っているね。ああ、お腹めちゃめちゃ空いている。。南京街で食べに行こう!じゃ、とりあえず元町に行くぜ!

My One Day Stay at Kobe Portopia Hotel

Nice views, this area is mostly surrounded by industry as it is near to sea ports and companies would use this advantages to boost their company services.







Views of the hotel room. Though the size is not that big, but the design is quite modern. The only bad thing about the room is probably the lighting. Good for travelers, but if you intend to do some business meetings in the room , I think it is better to change a place for it.
