I was in Yokohama a couple months ago and this video brings back great memories. I thought it was a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of Tokyo. I did go to the Cup Noodles Museum which I enjoyed, especially the custom Cup Noodle I made. My favourite part of my time there, however, was seeing a baseball game at Yokohama Stadium. Japan is awesome!
Oh wow! That's great you enjoyed a baseball game in Yokohama! It's a rare open stadium in the city center in Japan. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the Cup Noodle. I have to go back again. :)
Tip: I don't recommend the Cup of Noodle museum unless you have children with you. While it is a little interesting, it wil not entertain adults/teenagers for long. We were made fun of by my inlaws because it is very much considered a "childrens field-trip" location.
Awww! I went there last month, visited the Cup Noodle & Gundam Factory! Both good, but the Gundam Factory was the best! It was awesome looking at the Robot & his moves:) very very cool! I'm hoping they wont remove it next year so many people can see it :) Yokohama looks nice as well at night
Visited last month. The inside of yokohama station is very beautiful. I have been to the Nissan engine museum and it is really a good experience if you wanna drool over cars you cannot buy. But next to this museum (other building) there is the Hara model train museum which is a fun in between activity I can recommend to everybody of all ages. Difficult to purchase tickets but staff will help you. Yokohama is a great area for strolling around and there is so much to see and do that 1 day is even too short. Especially the parks and tourist spots like osanbashi and the park next tot the gundam factory. The worldporters shopping mall with the bandai namco cross shop and aeon cinema is great. I even enjoyed the various yokohama city qr code's that where in various places which explained the history of that site. I agree with the redbrickbuilding but there was a dog show when I was there which gave it a nice touch.
Thank you for the detailed guide of Yokohama. I agree it's difficult to see everything in a day in Yokohama. I didn't notice the QR code and that is a great thing to know.
I’m so glad that we found your channel. Was in japan end of Aug this year and your sharing on several indoor attractions has saved us from the scorching summer heat. We look forward to visit japan again and look forward to more videos from you too😊
Thank you for making this I'm going to Japan this summer for a school program and Idk why I thought Yokohama was super far from Tokyo like hours This is a great guide for the base knowledge I need
Hello Kenchan, Thank you for your video. It was great to see the maps and the boat terminal. I've traveled a bit, but never seen such as transportation method !
Thanks! Good information as usual. Your maps and charts are also very useful! We are thinking of boarding a cruise ship from Yokohama and it would be great to do some sightseeing before or after.
Kevin san, Dayle san! thank you for your kind message and supporting my video again. That sounds exciting you are taking a cruise ship. It's leaving either from Shinko (Hammerhead) , Osanbashi (where Asuka is in this video) or Daikoku. I hope you have a great cruise trip. :)
If you are going around fall, check to see if the Yokohama Beer Festival is going on... It is near the red brick warehouses and was nicely done and felt like a real German Octoberfest beer hall
Excellent video Kengo san! I have watched other Yokohama videos but they don't mention the Nissan headquarters. I definitely will see that! Also, the Motomachi shopping street and hilltop park look interesting too.
Thank you for watching! Yes, Nissan headquarter is a must visit for some travelers. It's walking distance from Yokohama station, so it will be a great start for a sight seeing day in Yokohama. :)
Right now on day 14 out of 17 on my trip. Tokyo->Fuji->Kyoto->Osaka->Hiroshima->Kanazawa->Tokyo I’ve had day trips at Kyoto, Himeji, Nara. I’ve been loving it very much. Tomorrow early I‘m exploring Kanazawa. Around evening it‘s time for me to take the Shinkansen back to Tokyo. Staying around Shinjuku area, which I haven’t explored much at all. Tokyo is mind bogglingly huge. I could have spent my time only there, but I wouldn’t have seen 1/5th of everything 😆. I still have to buy souvenirs at Don Quijote. That alone will take a bit of time from my last full day in Tokyo😢 For my first visit I’ve feel that I’ve had a great overview and have so far experienced variety.
Thank you so much for letting me know! I'm so glad to hear your trip is going well and you liked it here!! Haha, Tokyo might be big to see in a single trip, but that's great you went all over Japan and see variety of different places in Japan. I hope you enjoy the shopping in Tokyo too. 😆Hope you enjoy the rest of the trip in Kanazawa and Tokyo. :) Thank you again.
Very interesting. Thank you indeed 👍👍 Since I would be nervous on my first trip to Japan and would not know where to start, your help would come handy, hopefully. I'm going to subscribe you.
Not visiting Yokohama is my great regret from the last trip :( On the next one, I'm not going to miss it however I wish the Gundam Factory could extend the exhibition even more, because I should only be able to go at the end of next year
Breno san, I also didn't think Yokohama is that important destination for travelers until recently. I wonder if they make another Gundam somewhere else after next year. :)
Awesome video! Great information! Planning to visit Japan this coming November and one of my must-go-see is the Gundam Factory Yokohama and after that go eat at Chinatown. Is it possible again to ask how to get there again? I am coming from Tokyo Station and needing help to navigate to go visit the Gundam. Can you also do a video about the Gundam in Yokohama too? Thanks!
Hi, Kenchan. I might be visiting Yokohama in the Fall. I do remember you made this video. I am interested in most of the places you went except the Kirin just because I don’t drink beers. I have two questions: 1) how long did it take you to walk from 新高島 area to 元町中華街 area including all the stops? It’s amazing you could finish all the sightseeing in a day. 2) by the end of the video you seem to go uphill to a viewpoint. Is it 港の見える丘公園展望台 just to the west of 元町中華街metro station?
Hello Chow san, I checked my photo data and I left Nissan Gallery in 新高島 at 11:20 and arriving 中華街 around 15:15. So I was walking around 4 hours including lunch. Yes, that park at the end is 港の見える丘公園. It's a nice area to stroll around. :)
Yes, you can take Toei Asakusa line. If there is no direct one to Yokohama, as many goes to HND airport or Nishimagome (branch of Toei Asakusa line), I recommend you to take any trains to "Sengakuji" and wait in the same platform where you get off. Most of the train start from there.
My wife and I will be on cruise departing from Yokohama this autumn. Before getting on the ship, we will be staying in Tokyo (near Tokyo station) for couple days. I know there are few local trains running from Tokyo Station to Yokohama. But because we have to carry two mid-size luggage with us, what would be the easiest way to travel from Tokyo Station to Yokohama other than by taxi with luggages?
Hello, I don't know any ways to move from Tokyo to Yokohama other than trains and taxi. The easiest would be to take Tokaido line from Tokyo to Yokohama, and take taxi from east exit (if not Daikoku pier). The trains are not that busy if you don't choose commuting time.
thank you for this video! planning to visit yokohama from hakone in may. but i'm confused which train i should take from hakone yumoto to shin yokohama and the price 😢
If you are not using JR pass, you can take Shinkansen to Shin Yokohama (15 min. 1980 Yen with non-reserved seat) or regular JR Tokaido line to Yokohama (around 52 min. 990 yen). Both are from Odawara, which is the end of the Hakone mountain railway, a few stations from Yumoto. 👍
Thank you. I plan to stay in Yokohama when I visit Japan (hopefully in June).
i never realized how much yokohama looks like boston!! the red brick warehouses look like the mill buildings in the northeast usa!
You’re the best informing TH-camr when it comes to Japan videos. Much love from Indonesia
Thank you so much for your nice words. I'd like to work on more videos. :)
I just got back from Tokyo! And I stayed in Yokohama at Intercon with the harbour view and sunrise is something I’ve not seen in my life
Oh great! You stayed at a nice place. I hope you had a good time in Japan. :)
@@tokyokenchan I did! Thank you so much for your helpful guides.
Good work. As always, you take the extra effort to make nice diagrams and maps. I like the transportation map from Tokyo to Yokohama!
Thank you always. I'm glad you liked the map. :) I'll try to put map for more videos.
@@tokyokenchancan you please guide from Tokyo station to kirin brewery(name of station pls)in details such as which line to take or any transits ?

Did you get a chance to see Nissan crossing in ginza Tokyo ? Well worth a look if you like cars
Thank you for a great presentation, very informative and helpful.
Thank you Kenchan! A friend of mine told me about Yokohama. I look forward to it someday.
Anna san, thank you for watching this video. Your friend might know more about Yokohama. :) It's a fun place to visit. I hope you visit someday.

Sounds great. I went Yokohama again to see the cup noodle museum and somehow I went on Tuesday again..

As a Kidou Senshi Gundamu fan, you already know my friend, where my son and i went, during our visit to Yokohama last February. 🙃
Haha. It finishes in a year, so I didn't want people expect it's always there. I know it's my excuse... I'm glad you enjoyed!😀
Hi where going to look at all your videos now thank you Chris and Kitty Liverpool England.
Thank you Chris san and Kitty san again! I hope you like them. :)
Great video, I’ll be in Yokohama for a week in august! Thanks

Appreciate you showing the train lines. I'll be attempting to go by train to Yokohama from Tokyo to watch a J League match next week, should be fun
Oh that sounds fun. Is that in Shin-Yokohama? Then you can take Toyoko line and Shin-Yokohama line. 👍
@@tokyokenchan Good question... Dunno. I know it will be at Nissan Stadium, so Shin-Yokohama Park sounds right
Good, I can take direct train from Asakusa, where my hostel is.
I wish to see Minato Mirai at night
Yes, you can take Toei Asakusa line. If there is no direct one to Yokohama, as many goes to HND airport or Nishimagome (branch of Toei Asakusa line), I recommend you to take any trains to "Sengakuji" and wait in the same platform where you get off. Most of the train start from there.
