MK Guide Recommends
Sumaura Sanjo Amusement Park combines vintage charm with breathtaking views, perched on Mount Hachibuse in Kobe's Suma district. Reachable by a scenic ropeway and a retro funicular, this hilltop park evokes Japan’s Showa-era vacation spirit with its relaxed vibe and old-fashioned rides. A standout feature is the unique rotating observation deck, providing 360-degree panoramas of the city, Akashi Strait, and Seto Inland Sea. The grounds feature simple rides, a seasonal flower trail, a retro game corner, and walking paths perfect for cherry blossom season. More than just a thrill park, it’s a time capsule overlooking the coast—ideal for families, couples, and those seeking nostalgia.
