Yokohama lifestyle

iam group limited - What inspires feelings about a city will be the people that constitute its community.

You will find 3.Seven million residents (1.6M households) including 75,297 foreigners who live and operate in Yokohama, Japan’s second largest city.

What many people have no idea is always that Yokohama is also the city of “firsts”. The very first ice cream, the initial soap, the very first English language newspaper (Japan Herald), the first Japan’s daily newspaper including Japan’s first railway, all started in Yokohama.

The city’s proximity to Tokyo interests families. In fact, Japan’s efficient train service could have you at Yokohama station in less than 30 minutes from Shibuya and more or less the same time cruising the Shuto expressway on less congested hours.

After the city opened its ports around the world 155 years back, the people’s acculturation to western ways explains what we should see today, from rich cuisine to beaux arts.
