"Welcome to Yokohama" (Sightseeing) From the glittering futuristic skyline and amusement areas of Minatomirai to Japan's largest Chinatown, Yokohama serves as an exciting, eye-catching, multicultural tourist destination. "Feel the Pulse of Yokohama" (Music) Having led the way by being the first area in Japan to establish a predominant jazz scene, Yokohama has taken influence from blues and other Western musical styles as well.

"Yokohama's Art: Blending Tradition & Culture" (Art & Culture) Having been the port city at the epicenter of Japan's opening up to the West, Yokohama still holds onto that unique position of being able to fuse a variety of cultural influences while keeping an eye on the ever-changing and playful landscape of modern art and expression.
