  You’ve seen Kobe Tower, right? Well, Kobe Tower is located in Meriken Park. Meriken Park is also home to a must-visit monument: the BE KOBE sign.

There's actually a lot more to tell about Meriken Park, but if I go into all the details, this description will get way too long. So, on this tour, I'll tell you the other stories about this place.!
