Naka Pier, Marine terminal in Hatobachō, Japan.
The Naka Pier cruise terminal accommodates medium-sized passenger ships up to 50,000 gross tons with a 305-meter berth length and 9-meter water depth.
The Port of Kobe, where Naka Pier is located, opened in 1868 as Hyogo Port and became one of Japan's first ports for Western trade.
The terminal welcomes arriving cruise ships with traditional performances featuring brass bands and Taiko drummers at the passenger arrival area.
The terminal building includes customs clearance, immigration services, quarantine facilities, and connects to downtown Kobe through the automated Port Liner train system.
The facility maintains a constant water level with only a one-meter tidal range, allowing for steady ship operations throughout the year.
