Togakushi Shrine is a place that’s absolutely worth visiting. It’s a famous spiritual power spot, and even from the photos, it feels like it has a very strong energy! Once you enter the shrine grounds, it really feels like stepping into another world. Definitely, definitely worth the trip.
The only downside is that this area has a lot of bear sightings, so be aware of your surroundings while walking there!

Minato Mirai 21
JR Sakuragicho Station, Japan’s first train station, is the gate to Minato Mirai. Coming out of the station, you will see a futuristic cityscape such as the 296m-tall Yokohama Landmark Tower and the ferris wheel Cosmo Clock 21. In 2021, the urban 630m-long ropeway, YOKOHAMA AIR CABIN, was opened, connecting the former railway and the Unga-Park Station.
A really charming place. You can take a walk by the harbor, enjoy the flowers at Yamashita Park, shop at MARK IS, eat in Chinatown, ride the Ferris wheel to watch the sunset, and even take the ropeway across the water!
The best part is that it’s not as crowded as Tokyo. No wonder it has ranked among the top three places Japanese people most want to live for so many years! -
