During our trip to Japan, we visited Yokohama City for a day trip. It took us about 45 minutes to get there by train from Tokyo and we sent the whole day exploring Yokohama.
We visited two main sites, which were the Cup Noodles Museum and the Landmark Tower. The Landmark Tower is the tallest building in Yokohama and gave us some amazing views of the city and Mt. Fuji. We recommending going on a clear day to see everything!
For the second part of the day trip, we went to the Cup Noodles Museum and made our own cup noodles! This was a lot of fun and if you visit Yokohama, you should visit the museum.
We also had lunch and dinner and explored other parts of the city. We did this has a day trip from Tokyo, but we could have spent a weekend going to more places and seeing more things.
