Yokohama (横浜) is Japan's second largest city with a population of over three million, it is located less than half an hour south of Tokyo by train, is the capital of Kanagawa Prefecture, has one of the world's largest chinatowns and preserves some former Western residences in the Yamate district.
Yokohama's population is big enough to make it a major world city on its own. Its huge port is the industrial heartland of Japan. In the 1960s, Yokohama came up with a bold plan to transform its industrial cityscape into a futuristic city to rival Tokyo.
Train lines were built, warehouses torn down and man-made islands were created. Attractive architecture and parks filled the Yokohama port area.
