姫路みなとドーム

Himeji Minato Dome is an indoor sports facility located near Himeji Port with a distinctive steel-framed membrane roof design. The building houses multiple tennis courts, gateball courts, meeting spaces, and amenities like changing rooms and shower facilities for athletes and guests.

The facility opened in 2001 as part of Himeji's urban development and infrastructure expansion. Its modern design with the membrane roof structure represented a new approach to multipurpose venue construction in the region.

The venue brings together residents for sporting events and concerts, serving as a gathering place where the local community comes to watch competitions or enjoy performances throughout the year.

The layout makes it easy to find different event areas and watch from comfortable vantage points. Parking is available on-site and proximity to the port provides good road access for visitors arriving by car.

During emergencies, the dome shifts its role to become an evacuation shelter for residents, making it a critical disaster response facility. This dual purpose design reflects how public buildings in Japan integrate emergency preparedness into everyday infrastructure.
