Another post of man-made structure.
After two posts on the Tokyo Sky Tree, I'm back on track with the much-delayed trip report posts that I should have done right after our return from Japan last December. I got side-tracked, I guess. A LOT! heh

There's Landmark Tower in Yokohama and another building of note is :
Yokohama Red Brick warehouses which was built in 1911. It is facing the Yokohama Port and consisted of two wings. The former shipping warehouses are now renovated to house fancy restaurants and stores.
The first wing houses galleries and there's a hall for concerts. The second wing comprises of stores that includes a beer restaurant and Motion Blue Yokohama.
When we were there, the place was busily in the midst of preparing to put a skating rink, for Xmas celebration. It would've been nice to spend an evening there once the venue is set up, wouldn't it?

With the Cosmo Clock 21 (that's the ferris wheel) and Landmark Tower in the background. The adjacent park known as the Red Brick Park is a nice place to spend a day out relaxing.
It didn't look like it through these two photos, but the place is a popular spot.
We had no interest in the restaurants or shops so rather than going inside the building, we chose to stay out and took a breather enjoying the port's view. Raimie was too tired to care where he's sitting! Mommy had a bit of energy left and couldn't sit still! LOL
There are two other places that I know that has red brick buildings in Japan. One is the Tokyo Station and the other is Hakodate's Red Brick Warehouse.
