Kobe City Hall 24th Floor Observation Lobby is an observation space located on the top floor (24th floor) of Kobe City Hall No. 1 Building, located in Chuo Ward, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture. Since it is free to use, it is a hidden scenic spot that is popular not only with tourists but also with local residents. From here, you can see a panoramic view of Kobe Port Tower, a symbol of Kobe, the Maritime Museum, Kobe Port bustling with ships passing by, and the beautiful cityscape. On a clear day, you can even see Kansai International Airport and Awaji Island in the distance.

The great attraction of this observation lobby is that you can see the city of Kobe from a 360-degree perspective in all directions. From the south side, you can fully enjoy the scenery of the port town, such as the waterfront of Kobe Port, Meriken Park, and Harborland. From the north side, you can look down on the majestic Rokko Mountains and the cityscape of Kitano, where the foreign-style houses are located. You can enjoy the vibrant city of Kobe during the day, the romantic sunset at dusk, and the sparkling "million dollar night view" at night.

The observation lobby is equipped with tourist information boards and benches, so you can relax and enjoy the view. Located in the center of Kobe, it is very easy to access, and is a great place to stop at the beginning or end of your Kobe sightseeing trip to get a good idea of the geography of the whole of Kobe. This is a recommended spot for those who want to enjoy a spectacular view easily and for free.
