再び大空を舞うその日を願って。🦅

The Nogeyama Zoo protects buzzards, peregrine falcons, owls, and mizogoys that have been unable to return to the wild due to injury or other reasons.

We hope for the day when they soar in the sky again. We hope for the day when they soar into the sky again.🦅

april 8: 横浜ツアー

I spent my day with WIC today~ We made a mini trip outside of Tokyo to Yokohama! It took over an hour by train, and you should definitely wait for the express train or else it would take even longer!

Our first stop was Chinatown~

Not going to lie, because I have been very let down by the Chinatown in LA, I wasn’t expecting much this time around. Also, since I come from a Chinese background, it wasn’t as interesting to me than it would be for others. The Chinatown in LA seemed more like a ghost town. But~ the Chinatown in Yokohama is very different; it was extremely crowded with tourists just like NY. The food that seems to be plentiful here is chestnuts. There was at least 3 chestnut stands within 10 feet from each other asking for people to try their samples. All of them were the same price too. As for restaurants, I haven’t been able to see an appealing one from the route we walked along, but I’m sure if I did more research next time, there should be a very good one hidden somewhere.

I think this is the Japanese take on 小籠包 (しょうろんぽう) or soup dumplings because the skin on the outside is fried. For 4 pieces it is 860 yen. This is NOT something you would want to eat if you are on a date. Once you bite into it, the soup shoots out of the dumpling. Let me emphasize, it doesn’t leak out.. it SHOOTS out.. :( Once the soup dries on whatever it gets on, it will remain crusty until you wash it off. I ended up having crusty hair for the rest of the day (the day literally just started too, so you could imagine how upset I was). Just as I was trying to finish wiping off as much soup off my now crusty hair, my friend bit into one of his 小籠包 and exploded more soup onto my hand... 1/10 would not recommend. The 1 point is for the sake of trying something new. Also, the taste of normal 小籠包 tastes better!! So if you want 小籠包, just go for the regular one that has soft skin. I guarantee your soup will only gracefully leak out and not shoot out and attack someone. 

Our next stop was 山下公園 (Yamashita Park). It was such a beautiful park. There were so many flowers in bloom because it was April! This might sound a little silly, but it was my first time seeing someone pour water onto their doggo’s urine when their doggo urinates on the streets!!! I was so shocked at how much Japanese people care about cleanliness in public!! In New York, we have people who refuse to pick up their doggo’s poop even when there’s a fine for not doing so... I wish people in New York cared about cleanliness as much as people in Japan do!!!

This is the view of harbour by the park!! I love the view of the water so much despite not knowing how to swim. Perhaps it’s the sound of the waves that makes me feel more at ease.

We took the シーバス (It’s spelled ”Sea Bass”.. but it’s actually a “Sea Bus” aka a boat) to Yokohama Station for 700 yen. Definitely a nice, relaxing ride on the waters where you can enjoy the view.

Yokohama Station was decorated in so much sakura that I had to take a photo~ It’s such a pretty view.

Next, we took the JR train to 野毛山動物園 (Nogeyama Zoo). Admission was free!! I think they close kind of early, around 4:30pm, so last entry would be 4pm. It is a decent sized park for a free admission zoo!! I highly recommend making a little side trip if you like seeing animals!! The slopes are a little rough when you walk up to the zoo, so make sure to have some water on you~

My favorite is probably the red panda!! It was sooooooo cute!!!! You can see the second one in the back hiding behind the little house. They’re both soo cute!!!

I took a picture of this giraffe because I thought of Kwangsoo from Running Man. Let me warn you.. this was probably the worst smelling part of the entire zoo.. 

There were also Feeding Times in the zoo, where you can watch the zookeepers feed the animals!! I don’t remember “feeding times” being a thing back then.. I haven’t been to the Bronx Zoo in New York, but I have been to a couple of zoos in China from when I was a tiny toddler. My foggy memory doesn’t remember feeding times being a thing, but it was an interesting touch to the zoo!! I took some pictures of the bear and penguins being fed :)

A very interesting thing about these penguins that I noticed was, if one of the fishes ever dropped onto the floor or into the water, the penguins wouldn’t eat them. They would only eat the “fresh ones” that the zookeeper holds. Also, a very mean-looking crow stole one of the penguins’ food. I never really disliked crows much since there aren’t many in New York, but JAPAN IS FULL OF THEM & they are HUMUNGOUS. They’re almost as big as chickens here and they’re also very scary and loud. Sometimes I’m sleeping in at the dorms, and I hear them cawing outside nonstop. It drives me crazy sometimes because I just want to sleep in on some days.

After exploring the entire zoo, we were walking towards 横浜赤レンガ倉庫 (Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse) along the Kishamichi Promenade. But first..

This is the 横浜ランドマークタワー (Yokohama Landmark Tower). Fun fact... I didn’t even know that this was a landmark tower when I took the picture!! I just thought to myself, “Wow, what a magnificent looking building. Let me take a photo of it.” But yes, this is the Landmark Tower in Yokohama!! Although there are many buildings in NY, the architecture of buildings in Japan is very different!! So I appreciate the different structures that they have here!

Such a beautiful view. Everything was like a painting. The big ferris wheel across the water is from Yokohama Cosmo World!! Although I didn’t get a chance to go inside, I think the view from afar is even prettier. They play some guitar music along this promenade, so I think it would be a great date spot!!!

There was also a beautiful couple that I saw from a distance and I had to capture the moment!! This is definitely a great place to visit, even if you’re alone!! I think this is one of those places where you can sit for a moment and clear your mind off from worries!!

I saw this huge anchor before crossing the street and thought it was aesthetically pleasing, so here it is~

These are the flowers in 新港中央広場 (Shinko Chuo Hiroba)!! April is tulip season in Japan!!! There was a huge field of tulips strewn across the area! I loved it. My photos, unfortunately, do not do justice for how beautiful the flowers were. I didn’t want to lose the group entirely since they were ahead while I was taking photos, but the flower bed was beautiful!!

This is the Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse. Too bad I didn’t get a chance to go inside, but I will next time!! I think there are some mini stores inside the warehouse, so it might be worth a look!!

The last photo that I took for the day! 現地解散〜 帰りましょう！It’s time to go home now :)
