From Sakuragicho Station (JR Negishi Line / Yokohama Municipal Subway)
If coming from JR Sakuragicho Station (JR Negishi Line), meet at the North ticket gate. There are two exits – take the Minato Mirai direction (arrow direction), not the Noge direction. (If using Yokohama Municipal Subway Blue Line, exit from North Exit 1 and head toward Minato Mirai.)
Head toward Yokohama Landmark Tower visible on your left. Go toward the escalator as shown in the image.
After taking the escalator up, you’ll find a moving walkway – get on and let it carry you. (Pro tip: the moving walkway is quite slow, so if you’re with friends or a partner, prepare some conversation topics to avoid awkward silence!)
At the end of the moving walkway, you’ll see Landmark Tower standing prominently on your right. Don’t enter Landmark Tower itself, but enter the adjacent Landmark Plaza.
The connection to Landmark Plaza is on the 3rd floor, so take the escalator on your left down to the 1st floor.
Once you reach the 1st floor, turn around 180 degrees and walk straight toward the opposite side of Landmark Plaza (Minato Mirai direction).
Continue straight and exit Landmark Plaza. You’ll see the entrance to Queen’s Square Yokohama directly ahead – enter it. Yokohama Minato Mirai Hall is located at the far end of Queen’s Square.
Inside Queen’s Square, continue straight without turning toward the opposite direction.
You’ll pass a FamilyMart, and see Cafe de Crie in the distance. Once you see these landmarks, you’re almost at Yokohama Minato Mirai Hall.
