Yippie! On the JR-train on our way to Yokohama City!

Looking down at Yokohama City from a few meters above sea level

The view that greeted me the moment I stepped out of the station

Look there, up in the sky! It's a bird! No, it's a plane... Ahhh... it's just one of Yokohama's amazing infrastructure!

A towering building vs a huge ferris wheel... Round 1... Fight!

Peter Pan, Help! Captain Hook's coming to Yokohama!

Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your golden hair!

Ferris wheel: I will rise like the sun in the sky!

Doctor Octopus, is that you? (with photo effect: dark shade frame)

Mama, I'm right! It's Doctor Octopus! (photo effect: inverted hues)

My knees are shaking, but the view is astounding!

There are already so many articles written about Yokohama, yet how can I resist writing another one when the place is indeed worth telling about. In fact, the moment you step out of the station, the ambiance feels different from other cities. It feels very welcoming as a cheerful, entertaining, adventurous and yet relaxing atmosphere greets you. This was my impression the moment I exited the Sakuragicho station and opened my eyes to the beauty of Yokohama City.

Just a few-minutes walk around the station, my camera’s shutter continuously clicks as the structures around captivated me with fanciful delight!
