Yokohama Chinatown is a foodies fun ground with street food shops every few meters. And there’s about 250 Chinese owned restaurants scattered throughout the district. In fact, it’s the largest Chinatown in Japan as well as one of the largest in the world.
Quick little history about the area, In 1859, the Yokohama seaport was opened and many Chinese immigrants and traders arrived and formed settlements, built schools, community centers, facilities which became the start of what we today know as Chinatown. But because of strict laws during that time, it was only until 40 years later in 1899, were the immigrants permitted to live outside the designated foreign settlement area.
Today, 95% of Yokohama Chinatown visitors are in fact non-Chinese, which is uncommon worldwide for a Chinatown.
You’ll also notice 10 colorful gates throughout Chinatown and 4 main outer gates which serves to protect the area and all based on feng shui.
