The Perfect Weekend Date in Yokohama’s Minato Mirai

#cityplaybook

Minato Mirai in Yokohama is the ultimate city-meets-seaside destination. With waterfront views, cozy cafés, and a mix of modern and historical charm, it’s the perfect place for a romantic weekend. Everything is walkable, photogenic, and delicious—what more could you want?

10:00 🏮 Stroll through Yokohama Chinatown
Start your day with a wander through Japan’s largest Chinatown. So many sights, sounds, and smells to take in!

11:00 ☕ Brunch at CHILLULU COFFEE
Thick, fluffy pancakes and a smooth café latte—yes, please. The cozy vibe makes it even better.

13:00 🥟 Snack break with Xiao Long Bao from Houtenkaku
Piping hot and juicy—grab a few to-go and enjoy them while walking around. Worth the line!

15:00 🏨 Check-in at New Otani Inn Yokohama Premium
We stayed in a top-floor room with sweeping views of the Minato Mirai skyline. The view alone made us smile.

18:00 🍷 Dinner at The Sea (inside the hotel)
Their beef stew was melt-in-your-mouth good, and the dessert? Perfection.

20:00 🌃 Evening walk at Nippon Maru Memorial Park
A peaceful stroll with glowing lights, city reflections, and the sea breeze. The perfect end to the perfect day.

Why I recommend Minato Mirai:
・Everything’s close together, making it easy to explore without stress
・It’s got just the right mix of romance, waterfront charm, and great food
