Mitsui Outlet Park near the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge

I really love outlet shopping, so whenever there’s an outlet near wherever I’m travelling, I end up dropping by. This time, when I went to Kobe to burn through the last of the summer, there was a small outlet nearby, so I paid it a visit.

It’s one of the Mitsui outlets.

It had a name like “Marine Pia” or something, but I can’t remember exactly. It’s on the small side.

The atmosphere is nice, as you’d expect from Mitsui.

there weren’t many brands I’d actually buy. Probably because my standards have gone up..

Kobe being right nearby, even the café inside is an ig.. how enviable!

The sea is gorgeous too..

The view really is spectacular. Outlet shopping is always a bit of a lucky draw anyway, but with this little worth buying and such an awkward location, I don’t think I’ll be coming back.
