It sounds kind of weird, but i'd like to know, whether anyone knows the name of the patron deity or saint of Kobe. I looked it up on the net, but it's either general info on the city or something about a damn basketball player, sigh.
so if anyone knows...

Hendrik,

Japanese ports do not have patron deities, let alone saints.

For your information, Kobe Bryant has been given the key to the City of Kobe by the Mayor when he visited the city. He is an honorary citizen of Kobe. (I heard that his father, a former NBA player, loved Kobe beef so much when he visited Japan that he named his newborn son after it.)

Thanks a lot. I probably insulted the bureau of foreign affairs of Kobe a lot, when I wrote my letter to them asking that question. My Japanese is horrible ;)
Thanks!

I am looking for the Japenese symbol for Father and Son. Want to get tatoo. Thanks.
