A visual feast for the eyes at the Red Brick Warehouse 🧱 and Chinatown 🍽️ 🪁

#August2025

When visiting Yokohama, the Red Brick Warehouse is a must-see!

Originally a Meiji-era warehouse, it's now a hipster-inspired shopping mall complex. The red brick architecture, paired with the harbor backdrop, creates stunning photos 📸✨.

It's home to a variety of small shops and unique restaurants:
🍴 Bills (a popular Australian brunch spot with amazing pancakes)
🍴 Qiyangxuan Restaurant (their signature siomai is a must-try)
🍴 Bistro & International Cuisine (Italian, French, and Japanese cuisine are all available, and dining while enjoying the harbor view is incredibly chill)

There are also many small shops selling handmade goods and souvenirs, making it a great place to stroll through.

Every winter, there's a Christmas market and ice skating rink, creating a super romantic atmosphere 🎄⛸️.

After exploring the Red Brick Warehouse, take a leisurely stroll along the walking path to Chinatown, passing through a park along the way!

Not far from the Red Brick Warehouse is Japan's largest Chinatown! 🏮
Entering the colorful archway, you'll feel like you've been transported to another world. The streets are lined with Chinese restaurants and dim sum shops, each overflowing with aromas that will make you crave a bite.

Must-try dishes:
🥟 Xiaolongbao (steamed and served fresh, with a generous helping of broth)
🥠 Peking duck (served at many established restaurants)
🍜 Chinatown-exclusive ramen/dandan noodles
🍡 Panda-shaped buns and desserts (adorable and delicious for photos)

There are also small temples and cultural experience areas here, perfect for shopping, dining, and taking photos. Visit in the evening when the lanterns are lit for a more inviting atmosphere.

(One vendor's almond ice cream is incredible.)
