What people say

Khye Fiona
"The observatory's design has an exterior frame made from Hinoki cypress. The inspiration comes from 'Komorebi', a beautiful Japanese term for sunlight filtered through trees. The design cleverly minimises the heat from the summer sun and keeps out the rain. Whether it's day or night, you're treated to stunning panoramic vistas of Kobe and beyond. Light-ups at night are also magical, so definitely come here and grab some shots!"
