This week I had a friend for visit. On Tuesday we went to the second largest city in Japan: Yokohama, which is essentially just another part of greater Tokyo (it takes about 30 min by public transportation to get there). In Yokohama we visited Japans tallest skyscraper, the Landmark Tower. Viewing from there in the direction of Tokyo’s city centre, you can see the urban area really stretches to the horizon.

An elevator takes you to the top floor at 750 m/min
In the far north you can see the skyscrapers of ShinjukuWe also visited the Mitsubishi-Industrial-Museum. The exhibits are however very similar to what you find in the innovation museum in Odaiba, Tokyo.
