Only a 30-minute train ride from Tokyo, you can reach the unique cosmopolitan city of Yokohama. Yokohama has two faces: modern and classical. In this tour you can enjoy a modern life at Minato Mirai 21 and a classical one at Yamate Heights and China town. MM21 is a national project, starting in 1984, to create a new city at its waterfront, suitable for the 21st century. Yamate Heights, an old European settlement on a hill, preserves beautiful European style houses.
Yokohama is extremely a young city. It has only less than 160 years of history.
Yokohama has a fascinating tale of transformation from a small fishing village to the 2nd largest city. Its evolution is particularly notable for how it embraced international trade and modernization. Minato Mirai district is a large urban development. The name reflects its design and purpose as a futuristic city. We will explore how Yokohama has been developed so rapidly in 160 years, watching several historical architectures, etc.
