What to see in Yokohama

Yokohama is a port city with a vibrant history and a modern soul, located just 32 km from Tokyo. Once a simple fishing village, it has become a gateway to international trade and has become a dynamic metropolis with a maritime climate, skyscrapers and cozy old neighborhoods. The city has a special atmosphere: the sea breeze, lively promenades and the combination of Japanese tradition with ultra-modern architecture make walking around Yokohama truly memorable.

Manufactures and facilities

Among the man-made attractions are Yokohama Cosmo World with its famous Ferris wheel in the Minato Mirai area, the Italian Garden in Yamate with an area of about 13,000 m2 and the Nippon Maru Memorial Park with a training vessel available for inspection. Important city landmarks are the 860 m long Yokohama Bay Bridge, Hakkeijima Paradise Island with entertainment complexes and Nissan Stadium, which seats more than 70,000 spectators. Minato Mirai and the port promenade showcase modernist architecture and museum expositions, which should be included in the list of things to see.

Natural attractions and places

The natural corners of Yokohama and its surroundings complement the urban landscape: coastal walking areas, parks for walks and cherry blossoms in the spring, offering picturesque views of the bay. The hilly terrain of Yamate gives green terraces and quiet squares, and the islands off the coast offer sea walks and contact with nature. Even within the city limits, you can find quiet corners for picnics and photo shoots with sea views.
