Yokohama: the perfect day trip from Tokyo
Yokohama is just 25 minutes from Tokyo by train, making it the easiest sports day trip from the capital. Yokohama Stadium is right in the heart of the city, steps away from Chinatown and the waterfront.
Yokohama Stadium (DeNA BayStars)
One of Japan's most centrally located stadiums. JR Kannai Station is a 2-minute walk. The BayStars are one of NPB's most popular teams, and their fans create an incredible atmosphere. The stadium has couple seats and party decks for groups.
