Is 1 day in Yokohama enough?


Is 1 day in Yokohama enough? One day is enough time to see the main sights in Yokohama. It can be done as a day trip from Tokyo, though it will be a longer day with an early start. It will be a little more leisurely if you spend a night in Yokohama. For some suggested hotels, see the Yokohama Hotels page.


Why is Yokohama so popular?

Since the time its port was opened, Yokohama has been vigorously acquiring new cultures and information from foreign countries and introducing to Japan our country's first-time-ever things from food to a wide range of cultures, which entitles Yokohama as the birthplace of Japan's modern culture.


Can I use Suica card in Yokohama?

To answer your question: yes you can use your IC card to travel to Western Tokyo and Yokohama. Thanks for your responses, everyone! Didn't realize SUICA and PASMO are now more widely accepted in the greater Tokyo area. Last time I was in Japan in 2012, I recall SUICA and PASMO were only accepted within Tokyo.
