Last update :

YOKOHAMA AIR CABIN connects the Sakuragicho Terminal just in front of JR Sakuracho Station to the Canal Park Terminal in the Shinkou District. At a total length of 630 meters and 40 meters tall at its highest point, it takes only 5 minutes to get across one way.

The air cabin is Japan’s first ever state-of-the-art city ropeway loop line, complete with thirty-six 8-person cabins, air-conditioned interiors, fully equipped surveillance systems for safety, and cutting edge LED light displays. Enjoy a comfortable ride across the sky, no matter what the weather.

From the cabin window you’ll find a delightful view of Yokohama/Minatomirai streetscapes and famous spots, including the oversized Cosmo Clock 21 Ferris Wheel at Yokohama Cosmo World, Yokohama Grand Intercontinental Hotel and more. The route even crosses over Ooka River, a well-known spot for seeing the cherryblossoms, and sends you across the heights of Yokohama as it glitters in the night sky. For an extra treat, each gondola is equipped with a fully glass exterior so you can enjoy a 360-degree view of the Minatomirai skies as you ride.

Once you arrive at the Canal Park Terminal, you’ll find yourself just steps from easily accessible, hot destinations including the Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse, Yokohama Cosmo World, CUPNOODLES MUSEUM Yokohama and more. On your next visit to Yokohama, take to the skies for a cozy ride on the new ropeway.

    上个月有幸乘坐了世界上最先进的城市循环缆车“YOKOHAMA AIR CABIN”!虽然在空中只有短短的5分钟,但心情特别激动,一直在想下次等国内的家人来时一定要带来看看。建议下了缆车后不要急于返回,可以在周围转转。环境十分幽静魅力。照片上的铁轨据说是当年连结货物和码头的车道遗迹。
