MM21 Day and Night

InterContinental Yokohama Grand, the hotel on the left that is shaped like a sail, is a popular destination for newlyweds and their guests while staying in Yokohama. Cosmo Clock 21 was the world’s tallest Ferris wheel in 1999, standing at 369 feet (112.5 meters), and is surrounded by wedding chapels, hotels, an amusement park, shopping centers, and docks for dinner cruise ships that sail out into the harbor.

Long exposure of the Red Brick Warehouse No. 1
Built in 1913, the warehouse was one of the first customs buildings in Yokohama. The warehouse survived the huge 1923 earthquake that leveled the rest of Yokohama and Tokyo. After surviving air raids during WWII, the warehouse came under the control of the U.S. forces until 1956. After extensive restoration and structural reinforcement, the buildings were opened to the public in 2002 becoming a popular destination for family outings, couples on a date, artists of all kinds, and tourists from the world over. Many events large and small featuring an international flare are held year round at the warehouse and the plaza next door.

Long Exposure of the Yokohama Customs Building aka "The Queen"
The original customs building was destroyed in the 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake. A new building incorporating reinforced  concrete and steel was completed in 1934. During the 1960s, the city of Yokohama took stewardship of the building as it had become one of the many symbols of the city and converted it into a museum focusing on the Yokohama’s history as Japan’s gateway to the West. Much of the original Romanesque art style with beige porcelain tiles throughout the interior have been preserved creating an opportunity to slip back to a time when architectural aesthetics were just as important as functionality.
