A 3-day Yokohama getaway

If you’ve already explored bustling Tokyo, Yokohama should be your next destination. Famous for its stunning waterfront, vibrant Chinatown, and rich cultural heritage, Yokohama is my go-to escape whenever I need a break from the hustle and bustle of the city. Join me on my 3-day trip!

Day 1: CupNoodles Museum Yokohama, Yokohama Landmark Tower, and izakaya

Yokohama, Japan

I began my day in Yokohama by exploring Minato Mirai, wandering through its bustling streets and soaking in scenic views of the waterfront. A highlight was visiting the CupNoodles Museum Yokohama, where I had a blast creating my own customized cup of noodles.

In the afternoon, I headed to the iconic Yokohama Landmark Tower. Watching the sunset from the observation deck was magical. With a cup of coffee in hand, I marveled at panoramic views of the city bathed in the warm hues of the setting sun.

As evening approached, I discovered a cozy traditional izakaya. Savoring every bite of my dinner, I reflected on the day’s adventures and enjoyed the simple pleasures of good food and great company. Yokohama provided a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo, and I felt truly grateful for the experience.

Day 2: Red Brick Warehouse, afternoon tea, and Yokohama Cosmo World

Yokohama, Japan

In the morning, I explored the historic Red Brick Warehouse, soaking in its charming atmosphere and browsing through the eclectic shops.

That day, I treated myself to a stay at the luxurious Yokohama Royal Park Hotel, where I enjoyed a delightful afternoon tea with stunning views of the city.

As evening approached, I visited Yokohama Cosmo World, a vibrant amusement park along the waterfront. Against the backdrop of the sparkling city lights, I captured a memorable photo with the iconic Ferris wheel, marking the perfect end to a day filled with leisure and enjoyment.

Day 3: Anpanman Museum, Chinatown, and onsen.

Yokohama, Japan

I started the day with a hearty brunch and enjoyed a delicious bowl of ramen, savoring the rich and comforting flavors. Afterward, I visited the Yokohama Anpanman Children’s Museum, a delightful place primarily designed for children but equally enjoyable for adults. One of the highlights was sampling freshly baked bread shaped like the beloved Anpanman characters.

Following the museum visit, I strolled to Chinatown for dinner, enjoying the vibrant atmosphere with its colorful lanterns and bustling streets.

To end the day on a relaxing note, I visited an onsen. I concluded my relaxing trip with wonderful memories, feeling refreshed and content.
