One of the highlights of the "átoa" exhibit at the Kobe Port Museum is the enjoyment of art! átoa is a theatrical aquarium that combines Aquarium and Art. Among the areas of interest, there are two that stand out: "PLANETS," which features a spherical water tank that represents outer space, and "MIYABI," which exudes an elegant Japanese atmosphere.

大好きです‼️ AQUA MUSEUMという言葉に相応しい空間です🤗 和テイストの空間は外人さんにもウケるだろうなぁ～。でも1番見てほしいのが球体のアクアリウムの空間✨ ゆったりとしたイスに座って眺めてると時間を忘れられるのは私だけでしょうか？あと、すぐ近くにmosaicがあり、屋上からの夜景はデートにはぜっっったいオススメです💕(๑•᎑•๑)💓

atoa に行きましたが、テーマごとに階層に展示が分けられていて、すごく楽しめました。個人的に好きだったのは、和のイメージ階と、図書館の階でした。楽しめたし、リラックスできた水族館？美術館？でした。あとフードホールで食事はしなかったのですが、タクシー手配をお願いしたら、最初お願いしたバーテンのお兄さんが、すぐ担当に繋ぎますと、そしてすぐ女性の方が来てくれて、今呼んでるのでお座りになってお待ちくださいねと席に促してくれました。タクシーがきて、外まで案内してくれた上、タクシーのドアの横まで付いてお見送りしてくれて、ものすごくホスピタリティ満載の対応頂けました！フードホールで食事しなくてすみませんでした。また次は絶対食事もしに行きます！笑心暖まるご対応ほんとにありがとうございました☺️

お土産がユニーク。青色のソーダは普通のとアルコールの2種類がある。あまり甘くはない。ポテトはチーズクリームがお薦め😋
