About Yokohama Area

A special time in Yokohama, where the romance of a port town meets the vibrancy of the city

The Yokohama area in Kanagawa Prefecture is an attractive tourist destination with beautiful night views and a variety of sightseeing spots that only a port town can offer. The Minato Mirai 21 shopping mall, Ferris wheel, observation deck, and other entertainment facilities offer a spectacular view of the nightscape from the bay area.

In Yokohama Chinatown, the largest Chinatown in Japan, visitors can enjoy authentic Chinese cuisine. For history buffs, the “Red Brick Warehouse” and “Yamanote West Wing,” which retain the atmosphere of the time when the port was opened to the world, are recommended.

The coexistence of urban sophistication and exoticism makes Yokohama an exciting and unforgettable destination for foreign visitors.
