Motomachi Shopping Street

元町商店街

3.9Est. 1.5 hrsKobe, Kansai
Local PickA distinctive place, off the usual route.

The eastern half of Motomachi’s 1.2km covered arcade is high-end retail. For vintage clothing, antique shops, and old-school kissaten, walk the western blocks toward the harbor. The Tokyo-style curry at Savoy is a classic Kobe lunch on this end.

Local tips

Walk the west end near 6-chome for the best vintage finds and old-school kissaten coffee shops. The Tokyo-style curry at Savoy is a Kobe institution.
