Nankinmachi (Kobe)
Nankinmachi (なんきんまち) is not the official place name by the popular name of the small area extending over Motomachidori and Sakaechodori of Chuo-ku, Kobe-shi. It is the Chinatown characterized by the Chinese design that is the registered trademark of the Nankinmachi mall promotion association [1].

Summary
It is counted in one of the Japan's three biggest Chinatown with Yokohama Chinatown, Chinatown Area, Nagasaki Chinatown, and more than 100 stores link the eaves in East-West approximately 200m, the range of north and south 110m. A lot of shops selling dim sum, sweets, ingredients, a souvenir on a street of the store are full of local shopper and tourists on a holiday.
The term "Nankinmachi" was ever a common name for the Chinese quarter. However, it is a proper noun pointing only to this district of Kobe virtually now because the most renamed it in postwar period.
Chuo-dori of Nankinmachi becomes the crossroads, and, in the east, in the west, in the south, there is the gate named "south tower gate" "the Xi'an gate" "the Chang'an gate" "an arbor" in the central open space, and the north is connected at the Motomachi mall.
It is opening of a store from about 10:00 a.m., but attention is necessary for a walk because a delivery of goods vehicle comes and goes until 11:00 a.m. to be prohibited from vehicle traffic.
When a day goes down, and it is night, "the Chang'an gate" and "the arbor" are lighted up.
Nankinmachi and overseas Chinese

The people of the resident overseas Chinese are said to be it now when the Kobe overseas Chinese exceeds double near 10,000 people for 6,000 Yokohama overseas Chinese. However, Nanjing-cho, Kobe is more small-sized than Yokohama Chinatown if a scale is considerable. Unlike the Yokohama Chinatown which is a place of the life, there are few residents in Nankinmachi of Kobe, and this is really because it is in approximately pure commercial areas. Yamate is dotted with the overseas Chinese-related facilities such as Seki Imperial mausoleum or the Kobe Chinese food same content school. It is carp land along a river, トアロード, Kitano-cho, and, in the place of residence of the real Kobe overseas Chinese, most of the famous Chinese restaurants of Kobe are based in the city center including Sannomiya not Nankinmachi.
Nankinmachi is not a settlement in Kobe, and this is a result open to the mixed-residence quarter, but it may be said with the evidence that people of the Kobe overseas Chinese built Japanese society and the good relations at the same time again in comparison with other areas. Because business has many successful people, and overseas Chinese has been recognized so that it is old, and it is representative in Kobe by Kindo Go saying "there are many people who are rich at the business left side of the stage", it may be said that there is relatively little national opposition and built the good relations with the Japanese society according to the said article. That is why, as for the name called Nankinmachi, there was not changed a name in postwar period saying that I had been already recognized widely in the world, moving although words such as Nanjing had been used insultingly for prewar 1:00 period (in Yokohama and Nagasaki, I am renamed to the Chinatown).
In late years many Japanese participate in the main events such as festivals (the lunar New Year) in Vernal Equinox Day, too. Many citizens and tourists gather and become not only Nankinmachi but also the important event of Kobe, and even the area news of the Kansai district is a scene familiar every year on the day. In addition, the Japanese children hoping for entrance to school in the Kobe Chinese food same content school where most of overseas Chinese children go to by a surge of the interest in China where economic development is remarkable increase rapidly recently.
History
Kobe Port opened in 1868, and the settlement for the foreigner was established. It is done with an opening of Nankinmachi in those days that I have begun to live in the west side without it being admitted that the overseas Chinese lives in a settlement because it did not link the trade agreement between 清国.
I am reduced to ashes by Kobe University air raid of 1945. It revived as an entertainment district of the Operation Army partner, but the outskirts were lined with bars for sailors without there being the trace, and making it it going ahead through the corruption and being paved the alley until the 1970s, and it was after the war mainly in the area where a streetwalker stood if it was at night.
Environmental maintenance such as an open space or the building of the tower gate was performed after "a Nankinmachi revival environmental service enforcement plan" of (1981) in 1981, and making it it went ahead through the sightseeing spot at a stretch. The division called Nankinmachi spreads through the double at the time and is lined with the Chinese restaurants where I moved to from Xinxing and other districts one after another now.
I was damaged in the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, but achieve revival. Particularly, the light meal sale at the r syllabary series broken store wins a favorable reception just after affliction and is continued now; and of Nankinmachi popular.
