The Kobe Friendship Bell stands as a powerful symbol of international goodwill between Seattle and its sister city Kobe, Japan. Gifted in 1962, the large bronze bell is housed in a traditional Japanese structure in the Seattle Center. The bell not only honors cross-cultural friendship but also plays a role during significant civic events. Surrounded by serene gardens, it’s a popular stop for visitors seeking peaceful moments and a deeper understanding of Seattle’s international ties.
