In this episode of Life in Japan we are exploring the fascinating city of Yokohama.

This international city has a vibrant downtown full of shops and towering skyscrapers.

基礎受動態

And the largest Chinatown in all of Japan is found here.

This city close to our home has many surprises in store, as we explore Yokohama Life-in-Japan style!

横浜で新しい発見を 沢山しました！

Today I'm being chauffeured by the beautiful, illustrious Ruth Reutter.

Right over here we're going to have Yokohama station.

Yokohama is Japan's original international city,

the first seaport for international trading to be opened after Japan's isolation era.

人口は350万人以上 日本第2位です

With over 3.5 million people, it is the second largest city in Japan by population.

隣接するの東京の 都市域に含まれる事もあります

It blends seamlessly into the larger urban sprawl of greater Tokyo and is included when counting Greater Tokyo's overall population.

But make no mistake, Yokohama is a unique and special place all it's own.

You can immediately tell when you enter Yokohama by car.

道路は整然として 綺麗な街並みです

The roads system goes from a chaos resembling spaghetti on a plate to a methodical grid and block structure.

手頃なホテルに泊まって 横浜を探検します

We are visiting nearby Yokohama in typical Reutter family fashion, finding an affordable hotel and exploring new areas,

政府のルールに十分注意します

staying within the confines of government regulations and recommendations during Covid.

閉まっている店も多いですが 新しい発見もあります

While many things are closed or restricted, there are a number of new experiences to be had.

MyStays. It says we're arrival right Right there. Straight ahead.

Oh! There it is! Perfect! Do I have the right of way here?

まずは… 大きいベットもあるわ

We're going to have to... oh, there's two bigger beds. That's good.

Should we turn on the lights in here? Turn on some heat!

I'm sorry. We forgot the [Nintendo] Switch at home? Oh boy!

Hit basement. That's where the car is parked.

まずは旧市街に行きます 歴史と最新の流行が見れます

Here we are at our parking spot. Let's get in our car and go!

赤レンガ倉庫は税関施設でした 今は観光名所です

Our exploration of Yokohama begins with the historical district where old and new meet in beautiful juxtaposition.

Red brick warehouses that once served as customs buildings now serve as shops, museums and event spaces in this beautiful area.

ルースが前から来たかった場所を 探検します

土産店や特産品のお店が 入っています

This is an area that Ruth has always wanted to explore more, and tonight we're just getting a taste of what it's like.

多くの店が撮影禁止なので 外観をお届けします

Many shops fill the inside of these old buildings with novelties and specialties you'll only find here.

In fact, most of them ask that you don't film inside, so we can only show you a part of what it was like.

This is where mommy wanted to go. The Red Brick Warehouse.

お店やレストランも多く 遊歩道も綺麗です

夏の夜にイベントがあったら 気持ち良いでしょう

All kinds of attractions for shopping and dining fill this area, and they are all beautifully connected with ample scenic walkways.

You can imagine how special this would be on a cool summer's evening with festivals and fireworks, bustling with people having a good time.

Look at all those bugs in there. My goodness.

Oh, did you find a little Lion? King of the jungle?

パンケーキとオレンジジュース

Look at the beautiful dinner! Oh my goodness.

Good? Becca, have you even tried yours yet?

No, I smell it though. It smells so good.

みなとみらいの観覧車は 世界有数の大きさです

世界最大の 時計機能付き大観覧車です

The Minato Mirai area of Yokohama boasts the Cosmo Clock 21, one of the biggest Ferris wheels in the world.

完成直後に もっと高い観覧車が出来ました

Clocking in at 108 meters, it held the record as the tallest Ferris Wheel,

only to be surpassed by another Japanese Ferris wheel shortly after it was built.

It's doing like a psychedelic flip-eye ball

寒かったので観覧車は断念して

Since everyone was so chilly, we decided not to do the 15 minute car ride to the top and back,

Hopefully we can get back here and try it sometime soon.

アニバーサリー？ 記念日に来ないと！

That is beautiful! What is it? Anniversarie?

Anniversarie? We should come here for ours!

It's a place for weddings — that's what we have discovered.

I betcha it is expensive — it's a beautiful wedding chapel.

海沿いの綺麗な公園と ビルが美しいです

It looks like a Disney-land for getting married.

Parks fill the seafront of Yokohama and add even more beauty to one of Japan's most iconic skylines.

水路と国際的な雰囲気が シカゴに似ています

The open spaces between the skyscrapers is a rarity in Japan,

and that open feel mixed with the waterways and internationality of the city makes it feel like Chicago to me,
