Small in comparison to other Chinatowns elsewhere, but bustling, colourful and lots of eating places and street food being prepared. The usual Chinese souvenirs also available. Very centrally located so you are likely to be close anyway, and worth a slow stroll from one end to the other with numerous photo opportunities.

Cleanest Chinatown anywhere. Restaurants are also plentiful and the price is very reasonable. It is very small, we were left with the feeling "What? Just this?" It is a destination to eat food but to experience a real Chinatown, you need to go somewhere else. It is no more than one small pedestrian road easily finish the street in 20... More

This is one of the more authentic China Towns I've been to and I enjoy the area a lot. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Kobe. There isn't a lot to do other than walk down the streets, window shop and eat - but the food is great and there is plenty of it. I especially like to... More

Kobe Chinatown is Ok for a stroll around but there is not much to do there but eat and the price of food is a little high! if your from Melbourne Australia its just like the one we have just smaller!
