Yokohama's Minatomirai area is one of a few places within Japan's big cities where you can relax and enjoy a leisurely time. There are plenty of open spaces stretching out to the sea and even on weekends you don't see big crowds here (except for special occasions like firework festivals). While enjoying shopping or a relaxed stroll you forget about time, and then you look up as the sun sets and night falls. That's when mesmerizing lights hit you. All the buildings, boats and playground facilities are brilliantly lit up illuminating the night sky of Yokohama Bayside. And this dream-like transformation occurs 365 nights a year - every single night!
