Shin-Kobe Oriental City
A large complex directly connected to Shin-Kobe Station, made up of a hotel, shops, and a theater. Its commercial zone was renamed "Kotonohako Kobe" in 2019 and is still open today. Although it sits right in front of the station, depending on the time of day its wide corridors and atriums can be almost empty of people, giving the feeling that something out of the ordinary lies right alongside everyday life.
