Yokohama Anpanman Children's Museum

Reviewed By wesleywaisiu - Singapore, Singapore

This new Anpanman theme park is a must go for the kids (below 6 years old) even if they don't know who is Anpanman or can't speak Japanese. The shows are very entertaining which you can guess what they are doing. The indoor playground is fun. A lot of cute merchandise, and the characters are everywhere, even in toilet bowl. The bakery shop sell Anpanman character bread and the food court also have a lot of Anpanman food. However, if you are going by yourself or group of adult, I suggest you to skip this as you may not be able to feel the joy here.

Yokohama Port Museum

Reviewed By Nunngo

Fabulous little museum. Ticket included entry into the ship moored not far from museum. The ship "Nippon Maru" is a sailing ship used to train sailors. It was built in 1930 and has trained over 11,000 cadets until her retirement in 1984. Nippon Maru sailed around the world 45 times but now provides educational programs to students. The Yokohama Port Museum is only small but plenty to look at and enjoy. On entry there is a photographic map on the floor which shows the port of Yokohama and its layout. On the day we were there we were lucky to have a tour guide volunteer who explained the region to us - very interesting to get local knowledge on the area. The exhibits within the museum focus on history, operation and the role of the Port of Yokohama. There is a boat simulator which a bit of fun and a challenge to experience.

HARA Model Railway Museum

Reviewed By BSOfan - Worcester, United States

As noted by others, this museum has a wonderful, extensive collection and terrific working model train setup. The best part (for which you need to reserve a time slot on entering the museum) is donning an engineer's hat, sitting at a realistic throttle, and guiding your model train along the tracks, monitoring your progress on a computer screen viewing the scene from a camera at the front of your locomotive.
