KOBE, Apr 23 (News On Japan) - Kobe Port Tower is set for a grand reopening on April 26 after undergoing its first renovations since its opening in 1963.

These upper levels offer not only an open-air deck but also a café where the floor rotates every 30 minutes, allowing guests to savor local cuisine while enjoying the changing views. Additionally, a bar has been set up to cater to evening visitors.
The reopening celebration on April 26 will be accompanied by various festivities, including a fireworks display, at the nearby Meriken Park, ensuring a festive atmosphere for this much-anticipated event.
