Discover Yokohama: The perfect day trip from Tokyo

If you have time to take a daytrip from Tokyo, consider a trip to Yokohama. Only about 30 minutes from Tokyo by train, this spacious harbor city is home to beautiful shopping malls, movie theaters, museums, and even an amusement park.

You can start your day by riding Japan’s fastest elevator in Landmark Tower, which whisks you up to the 69th floor in just under 40 seconds! The observation deck offers 360-degree panoramic views of the city and even Mt. Fuji on a clear day.

Afterward, explore Minatomirai at your own pace. Do some shopping at Landmark Plaza, MARK IS or World Porters, devour a delicious Hawaiian gourmet burger at Kua Aina in Akarenga Soko (Red Brick Warehouse), explore the Cup Noodles Museum, relax in a hot spring at Manyo Club, and more!

To wrap up your day, take a stroll back to Yokohama Station along the Hamamirai Walk. You will get to walk through the Nissan Headquarters building and across a pretty pedestrian bridge over the water.
