Less than an hour south of Tokyo is the city of Yokohama, a scenic spot for nighttime photography. The Minato Mirai waterfront area and Chinatown are just a couple of locations that light up after dark and beckon you to snap away. Minato Mirai has a number of walkways, bridges and amusement park rides while Chinatown offers shopping of a different variety and a number restaurants offering everything from shark fin soup to dumplings.

Yokohama is just gorgeous. It's so much more chill than Tokyo, sometimes it's just nice to have some room to breathe. Amazing shots!

I visited Yokohama twice, but didn't make good photos in the evening. Thanks for the nice nighttime photos!
