My favorite place in Japan is my hometown, Kobe.
Kobe is surrounded by the sea and mountains. I grew up near the sea, so I love the sea in Kobe. It is an inland sea called the Seto-Nai-Kai, and is characterized by gentle waves.

I spent so much time at the sea, swimming, diving, marine sports, fishing, fireworks, and barbecues. The sea food, such as sea bream and octopus, is abundant and delicious. And the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge is lit up at night and is very beautiful. Come and visit Kobe!
