YOKOHAMA
blue, green and much more in between
A location where humans and nature coexist, Yokohama is a sustainable city known for its clean air, calming blue waters and rich greenery.
As a port city, the bay has long been an integral part of the landscape and an indispensable resource that is treasured by locals. On top of all that, it boasts expansive western style parks, idyllic botanical gardens and gorgeous green spaces. Locals have worked extremely hard to preserve this greenery while at the same time continuing to develop the city for visitors to enjoy. It truly is a wonderful destination to wander around and appreciate the value of urban nature.
Respect is the key word in Yokohama. That includes, not only green and blue spaces, but also people. It’s an open-minded and sophisticated city that welcomes diversity.
