Begin your journey with a warm, fluffy bite of freshly steamed nikuman (meat buns), a Chinatown speciality bursting with rich and savoury flavours. Stroll through the lively streets lined with red lanterns and intricate Chinese architecture, and have the opportunity to try other must-try delicacies like crispy spring rolls, flavourful mapo tofu, and the ever-popular goma dango (sesame balls)—a delightful treat with a crisp outer layer and a sweet, chewy centre.
Beyond the food, Yokohama Chinatown is home to stunning temples, beautiful gates, and fascinating history. Visit Kanteibyo Temple, a breathtaking shrine dedicated to the Chinese god of business and prosperity. Admire the intricate carvings, golden dragons, and the serene atmosphere as you learn about the spiritual and cultural significance of this iconic site.
No Chinatown tour is complete without a traditional tea break. Relax and unwind at a charming tea house where you can savour a selection of fragrant Chinese teas, paired perfectly with delicate dim sum. Learn about the art of tea-making and discover the health benefits of these exquisite brews.
As the day winds down, explore the bustling markets filled with Chinese crafts, lucky charms, and speciality food products. Whether you’re looking for authentic Chinese ingredients, beautifully crafted chopsticks, or a lucky dragon figurine, you’ll find plenty of treasures to take home as a memory of your adventure.
