What travelers think of this experience
What you’ll do
Yokohama’s internationalized history has given the city many contrasting sides – from the futuristic bayside to the historical “old towns” of Kannai to the perfectly preserved shrines and temples of Sankei-en Garden. And with just four hours and a local insider, you’ll experience more of these sides than you knew existed.
Whether you walk down lantern-lit Noge’s narrow alleys to a cozy izakaya serving Yokohama’s famous Kirin beer and breadcrumb-battered aji furai (mackerel), stop off at the Yokohama Noh Theater for an impressive production of traditional Japanese performing arts, or simply gawk at giant shopping complexes in the fast-paced downtown districts, you’ll soon see why this city must be experienced to be understood.
