Yokohama

Yokohama is the capital city of Kanagawa Prefecture and the second largest city in Japan by population after Tokyo and most populous municipality of Japan. It lies on Tokyo Bay, south of Tokyo, in the Kant? region of the main island of Honshu.

This is the area where Asuka’s cousin Kumi is from. We did so more train hoping to go and meet her so that she could show us around.

Our first stop was the Anpanman (a japanese kids cartoon) Museum.

The Yokohama Landmark Tower is the tallest building and 3rd tallest structure in Japan, standing 296.3 m high.

We had lunch in Yokohama Chinatown.

We walked down to Tokyo Bay Area were we took a quick water taxi across the bay to the Cup Noodle Museum. Think cup-o-soup…yep, for real.

Just some pictures walking back to the train station before heading to our hotel for the night.
