Inside the building is a collection of local craft and souvenir shops. The goods are of fantastic taste and merely window-shopping brings satisfaction. You can also enroll in some of the handmade programs! The Meister Garden is renovated from an old elementary school and is worth taking a closer look at it.

Interesting area if you like architecture check out the Katano area in Kobe~

100 years old elementary school converted into a unique shopping mall. There are many shops selling souvenirs and local goods as well as art and craft classes within the facility. We found this place to be very charming. We bought an aroma match from the Match Store specialty, and my partner got herself a locally made shoes. Sadly, this place will be closed down on 28th December. So if you are in the area and have some time on your hands, you should visit this place before it permanently closes. If you use Kobe Loop bus (city loop), the bus will take you right to the parking lot of this facility. As a bonus, one of the most famous Pâtissier in Kobe, "L'avenue" is just around the corner, so you can do a joint visit.

This is technically a mall for a craftsmanship. Cool place. Old building and fresh tenants. One of the stop if you are around ikuta road.

Quaint shops to check out. Do the hop on, hop off day pass!

i like the stained glass which are well preserved around the building, and It’s a nice place if you take part in some handicraft lessons here, but would be quite boring if you simply come for visiting and shopping as products here are not very characteristic and only around 20 shops here.

It is an interesting place with opportunity for visitors to enrol in craft workshops. The shops are quaint and definitely The service staff are excellent. We were in a penmanship store and the salesperson showed us to the next store we wanted to go to and to the washrooms.

Craft market in a school , nice people great atmosphere

Good for crafts lovers, japanese culture, amd foodies! Make your own candles or wallets, fun for kids as well

this place was orginally a school, and has been converted into a tourist attraction that has some of kobes famous foods. The first floor has the famous foods, and the second floor has places where you can make your own crafts. For example in December you can make a snow globe and other christmas crafts. I think their are many tours going to this destination, but a tour is not necessary, you can easy go here by walking

Many interesting and good quality handicrafts available here.

Kids had fun making candles here

It's an old little European building with some souvenir shops, cafe and a theater. The music box shop is interesting where we bought a DIY music box. It's next to the city loop bus depot.

Cute place, hand crafts and snacks. Nice places to sit outside as well when the weather is nice.

Most of the good activity shops moved out during COVID.
