| | Tokyo : Yokohama |
 | | Although Yokohama Station is the city's main train station, I suggest taking a train from Tokyo that will deposit you directly at Sakuragicho or Kannai stations in Yokohama, since most attractions are clustered here. |
 | | Sakuragicho Station is the first stop from Yokohama Station by train (2nd by subway), Kannai the second. |
 | | Yokohama subsequently grew by leaps and bounds, and was a pioneer when it came to Western goods and services, boasting Japan's first bakery (1860), photo studio (1862), telephone (1869), beer brewery (1869), cinema (1870), daily newspaper (1870), public restroom (1871), and ice cream (1879). |
