Festive season @ Yokohama

Chinatown @ Yokohama Address: Yamashitacho, Naka Ward, Yokohama, Kanagawa 231-0023, Japan Largest Chinatown in the land of the rising sun. I love spending festive seasons overseas to experience a different celebration culture. It is extremely easy to come here via public transportation with their subway. I’ll suggest to exit at Motomachi-Chūkagai Station and walk towards Chinatown. Do remember to come with an empty stomach to try out all the local food. I was here during Chinese New Year just two years ago, right before the pandemic. #japan #tokyo #createwithtrip #overseastripmoments #urbanexplorer

Yokohama Chinatown

#cherryblossom2024 One of the most decorated Chinatown I have been too! It’s like you stepped into another world. Better set up and decorations than most of Asia and Europe. Lots of Chinese food, shops and shopping. Had a great time walking and eating around this place. Highly recommended if you are going Yokohama. The place is nice but the food there is not that great we tried some good food but some are just awful to eat and very expensive compared to other places. Also there too many people the place becomes to overwhelming to shop. Also there is no public toilet in order to use the toilet you need to pay a lot of money just to use one.

#thingstodo One of the most decorated Chinatown I have been too! It’s like you stepped into another world. Better set up and decorations than most of Asia and Europe. Lots of Chinese food, shops and shopping. Had a great time walking and eating around this place. Highly recommended if you are going Yokohama. China Town offers an enchanting experience that brings together an array of delectable cuisines and an energetic atmosphere. As a food enthusiast, I was thrilled to explore the diverse range of restaurants that this vibrant neighborhood had to offer. One of the standout aspects of China Town is the sheer variety of dining options available. Whether you're craving mouthwatering dim sum, fragrant noodles, or flavorful stir-fried dishes, you'll find it all here.

Great Chinatown

#thingstodo A great Chinatown to visit if you love everything Chinatown! It has everything...all of the restaurants and outside food stalls that you could wish for. It was extremely busy when we came here, just before Chinese New Year and technically still public holidays. Can easily spend hours pottering around here, eating and shopping for small gifts.

Yokohama Chinatown

#thingstodo Very vibrant, neat and colourful with lots of food around. It gets quite crowded over the weekend so you may have to queue up at a few places. However, if you walk further, you’ll end up finding quieter and less crowded places to eat. Most restaurants sell the same food so unless you have done some research, it’s hard to tell which is the best place to eat. I did not find the meat buns all that different from the convenience store ones, just a bit more expensive for the same size.

Yokoham ChinaTown

#cny2024 I like this place very much because it retain the traditional Chinese building style (wooden) so that every night in the Chinatown is like Lunar new year in China. There are varieties of Chinese food and dishes within the town, ranged from far northern China to Hong Kong cuisines popular in HK streets. People are wearing Chinese cheongsam on the street to make it more stylish. The price of restaurants within the Chinatown is reasonable (of course need to compare around),

Chinese new year 2022 : year of the Tiger...

Chinese new year is in less than one month... but you already can visit China Town by night... it's really beautiful. specially after the restaurants are closed. it's perfect for romantic pictures or even taking videos or any kind. surprisingly it was not cold (January 10th 22:30). This China Town is the biggest of all Japan... and definitely among the biggest in all Asia.

Chinatowns are everywhere in the world! Yokohama happened to have one, and it is just located at the south of Tokyo. There are a lot of things there. Chinese restaurants, clubs, bars, hotels, and many more. Walking under the lights of the Chinese lanterns will always be a nostalgic scene to me. The streets are well lighted and it's great to walk around there at night. #wintergetaway

If you are craving a chinese food while in Japan, there is no better place to get it than at Chinatown in Yokohama. Instead of sitting down, we decided to walk along the street and tried variety of chinese food. #chinatown #wintergetaway
