It is a modern city with many skyscrapers, and beautiful parks. Yokohama is famous for China Town. This has stores that sell many items (Pandas are a major feature) and delicious Chinese Restaurants. The Ramen Museum is also a fun place to stop at.

Other points of interest include an amusement park with a huge Ferris wheel and a couple of roller coasters. Yokohama has an amazing night view which can be seen from the Landmark Tower. The city is beautiful and a joy to walk around at anytime.

When you have finished shopping and need to eat, or just relax with a drink, there are plenty of opportunities to do so here. Whether it is just a cup of coffee and a sandwich or something more substantial, there are plenty of restaurants and shops to accommodate every taste and desire.

Sakai Kokodo deals mainly in imported European and American antique furnishings. The shop’s location in Yokohama’s original foreign settlement lends an air of authenticity to the antiques and gives shoppers a sense that perhaps many of the antique items are from families of the original settlement. In addition to antique furniture, Sakai Kokodo carries Meiji-era lamps and lampshades, and a large assortment of china, porcelain, and crystal.

On the same level, there are dozens of stalls selling prepared meals, from the simple rice ball to top of the line French or Chinese delicacies. And there is also a large wine cellar and well-stocked liquor store. As you might expect, you are not short of options in other departments either. You can find most of the world’s top brands in just about any category: clothes, jewelry, cosmetics, tableware, furniture, etc. The sixth floor houses the Sogo Museum of Art, which holds exhibitions of local and international artists. The Hiraki Bijutsukan is on the same floor and this gallery displays ukiyoe, or Japanese Woodblock Prints.
