Day Trip From Tokyo: What to do in Yokohama, BESIDES Chinatown!

Looking for a day trip from Tokyo? Yokohama, Japan’s second most populous city, is super accessible by train from Tokyo. While it’s often known for having Japan’s largest Chinatown, there’s so much more to explore in this vibrant city. Join me as I uncover hidden gems in Yokohama beyond the typical tourist spots. Yokohama opened to the world in 1859 as Japan’s first modern international trade port, bringing in a unique blend of Western influences that you can still see today in its cuisine, and architecture. Iconic sites like the red brick warehouses and Yokohama Cosmo World showcase this cultural fusion Minato Mirai, a sleek, futuristic district, is perfect for shopping, dining, and entertainment, and a must-visit, especially for its stunning waterfront views along Yokohama Bay.

  1. Great timing! I plan to visit on last day of my trip with local Japanese friend and seeing a baseball game

  2. Can’t wait for part two! Yokohama is such a beautiful city. I will be going back in October, I heard a lot of good things about Nogecho for food and drinks 🍺

  3. Thank you very much for your posting!
    I want to get in Yokohama air cabin!
    My first Tapioca milk tea is in China town in Yokohama!

  4. Too bad they closed down the gundam factory, would have loved a video of that. But! At least I got to see it a few years back. Can you do your picks of what to eat in Yokohama especially in china town. 😊

  5. How's the Vietnamese food in Japan? My mom from Vietnam so I love Pho. I also heard that there are a lot of Vietnamese immigrants in Japan now.

  6. A lot of people have done the Yokohama Ramen museum but it would be fun to have Shizuka's take on it.
