12 Bird's Eye View Photos of Yokohama

Fri, October 30, 2009

I think that the best place to admire Yokohama from high above is from the heights of the Yokohama Landmark Tower.
If the weather is good the landscape is stunning, and you can see as far as Hakone, the Tanzawa Mountains and sometimes, the Mount Fuji.

I was careful to visit the tower in a clear and sunny day, after a strong storm. I was able to see Tanzawa, however Fuji was hidden in the clouds.

I could have stayed there the whole day, without getting tired, admiring the view. I stayed long enough to have fun looking for known places and, of course, to take some photos.
Here’s a first set of bird’s eye view photos, and naturally, some landmark information. I will get back soon with a set of detailed photos.

Looking towards north-east, the 3 tall buildings in the foreground are the Queen’s Tower A, B and C:

The round shaped building (intended to look like a sail) is the Yokohama Grand Inter-Continental Hotel and on its left, with the white roof, there is the Pacifico Yokohama convention center:

To the right, we can see the Cosmo World Amusement Park, with the Cosmo World Ferris Wheel:

Cred că cel mai bun loc pentru a admira Yokohama de la înălţime este de la înălţimea turnului Yokohama Landmark Tower.

În zilele senine peisajul este excepţional, se poate vedea până la Hakone şi mai departe, munţii Tanzawa şi câteodată chiar Muntele Fuji.
Eu am avut grijă să vizitez turnul într-o zi calmă şi senină, după o furtună puternică. Am reuşit să văd Tanzawa, nu însă şi Fuji.

Aş fi putut să stau multe ore privind peisajul, fără să mă satur. Am stat totuşi suficient încât să mă distrez căutând locurile cunoscute şi, evident, să fac cîteva fotografii bird’s-eye view.
Iată o primă serie de fotografii şi câteva puncte de reper. Voi reveni cu o altă serie de fotografii detaliate.

Privind spre nord-est, cele trei clădiri înalte din prim plan sunt Queen’s Tower A, B şi C:

Clădirea rotundă (în formă de pânză de corabie) este Yokohama Grand Inter-Continental Hotel, iar imediat în stânga ei, cu acoperişul alb, se vede complexul Pacifico Yokohama:
