Yamashita Park
Yamashita Park, the most famous park in Yokohama, has a rose garden and cherry blossoms within the park, so it is recommended for those who want to take cute couple photos with flowers. The flowers that bloom vary depending on the season, so it is a good idea to check in advance.
The park faces Yokohama Port, so you can take photos with the sea. Right in front of the park is the cargo ship "Hikawa Maru," which is also a maritime museum, and at night it is lit up, creating a romantic atmosphere.
Yokohama Landmark Tower
The Yokohama Landmark Tower, a distinctively designed building, boasts 70 floors and a height of 296 meters, making it the third tallest skyscraper in Japan.
You can take the fastest elevator in Japan to the observation deck "Sky Garden" on the 69th floor, and the view of Yokohama from there is a must-see. On a clear day, you can even see Tokyo Tower, Skytree, and Mt. Fuji... Be sure to take a photo from this observation deck with the spectacular view of Yokohama in the background.
Railway
Kishamichi is a promenade that was redeveloped from part of the harbor railway that opened in 1911. From here you can enjoy views of the ocean right in front of you, the Minato Mirai cityscape to the north, and the ropeway to the south.
Not only can you take photos with a variety of different scenery as a backdrop, but the bridge itself has a retro feel to it, making it a perfect spot for photography.
Nippon Maru Memorial Park
Nippon Maru Memorial Park is a park where the Nippon Maru, a sailing ship that is an Important Cultural Property of Japan, is on display, and you can take photos that are typical of the port city of Yokohama.
After sunset, the Nippon Maru is lit up, creating a beautiful sight, so we recommend visiting at night as well as during the day.
It is also close to the Kids Carnival Zone, which has the merry-go-round at Yokohama Cosmo World, which we will introduce next, so it would be a good idea to take photos of both places.
Yokohama Cosmo World
Yokohama Cosmo World is free to enter! With about 30 different attractions, it's the perfect place for a date.
There are many photo spots here, and if you want to take photos in a fun atmosphere, daytime is the best time, but we also recommend taking photos at night when the lights are lit up and the atmosphere is glittering. You can see a spectacular view from the 112.5m high Ferris wheel, so don't forget to take some photos.
Yokohama Cosmo World has closing days, so be sure to check in advance before visiting. Also, the Kids Carnival Zone, which has the merry-go-round, closes earlier than the rest of the park, so if you're taking photos at night, be sure to finish taking photos there first.
Shinko Central Square
Shinko Central Square is a square across the street from the Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse. Many flowers bloom here each season, including tulips, lavender, hydrangeas, and sunflowers. Surrounded by flowers and greenery, you can take photos that make you feel like you've entered a painting.
There are also spots where you can take photos with flowers with the Red Brick Warehouse, a Yokohama landmark, in the background, making this a recommended location for couple photos in Yokohama.
Harbor View Park
" Minato no Mieru Oka Park " is a park located on a hilltop, where you can get a panoramic view of Yokohama Port.
In addition to the view of Yokohama Port, the English Rose Garden in the park is a popular photography spot and one of the most famous rose spots. Various roses and flowers bloom in the garden depending on the season. Since you can enjoy beautiful flowers all year round, it is also a popular place for couples to take photos.
Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse
The Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse is a must-see tourist spot in Yokohama. Its stately brick exterior is a picturesque place where you can take stylish photos.
It's a place where there are a lot of tourists, so if you want to take pictures calmly, we recommend going early in the morning. If you take pictures from a distance, such as Zou-no-hana Park or Shinko Central Square, you can take pictures of the Red Brick Warehouse without being bothered by the crowds.
MARINE& WALK YOKOHAMA
MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA is an outdoor mall adjacent to the Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse. It is home to a variety of unique shops and restaurants, and is a popular place to enjoy shopping while sightseeing around Yokohama Port.
It is also a popular photo spot, with its brick exterior, angel wings painted on the walls, stylishly designed staircase, and other features that make it a photogenic spot no matter where you photogenic. It is close to the Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse and Shinko Central Square, so it is a good idea to visit it while taking photos at those locations.
