Yokohama Minato Mirai

Yokohama is the second largest city in the country (32 km southwest of Tokyo). In the past, repeatedly destroyed to the ground by earthquakes, today it is the largest port in Japan and the largest center of foreign trade operations in the country. The city impresses with its ultra-modern architecture and turbulent rhythm of life, for which it received the semi-official nickname “the city that never sleeps”. The main attractions of Yokohama are the landscape park and the open-air museum Sankayen, in which samples of traditional wooden structures, temples and residential buildings are collected from all over the country. Interesting located on a hill above the bay and literally surrounded by old buildings and museums, the park Minato-no-Miero-oka-koen, the Yamashita Park, connecting the shores of the Bay Bay Bridge, the Land Tower skyscraper (height 296 m), the international business and cultural center of Minato-Mirai-21 ("Port of the Future-21"), the "Theater Street" Izaki-Cho - the largest and most famous commercial and entertainment quarter of the city, the Hakkeyjima Water Park (height 296 m).

The most famous area of "Minato Mirai" is located in the central part of Yokohama and in Japanese means "port of the future".

There is an amusement park with the popular Cosmo Clock Ferris wheel.
