While exploring Yokohama's waterfront for street photography, the mesmerizing ripples and reflections of skyscrapers on the Ooka River caught my eye.
A distinctive amphibious bus, the Yokohama Sky Duck, glides upstream on the Ooka River, offering breathtaking views of shimmering skyscrapers, grand hotels, and charming waterfront promenades.
Above the river, the Yokohama Air Cabin urban ropeway slowly transports passengers from Sakuragicho Station to Unga Park on Shinko Island, providing picturesque views day and night.
Both the Yokohama Air Cabin and Sky Duck are must-see attractions, offering unique experiences and unforgettable vistas.
For those keen on exploring this location further, including details on the amphibious bus tour and urban ropeway, I've provided a comprehensive write-up with Google Maps links and additional sources for reading (https://www.pix4japan.com/blog/20240102-ooka-river).

秋
北風の季節が訪れ、木々が色づき始めました。
トレンチコートに袖を通すと、背筋が伸びる思いです。
時が流れても変わらぬスタイルが、横浜にはあります。

Retired Ocean Liner and Lovers on Park Bench
Regardless of the time of day, the benches of Yamashita Park facing the waterfront are enjoyed by young mothers looking to take a break, elderly couples out for a short walk, young embracing couples, elderly men listening to the AM radio broadcast, young skateboarders at night waiting for pedestrians to disappear, and more.
The first time I boarded the NYK Hikawa Maru cruise ship was back in the mid-80s. I hope to go back to visit again and take photos when I’m able to leave my dog at home.
Before the war, this ship was the most luxurious means of travel to the U.S. with passengers that included members of the Japanese imperial family, Charlie Chaplin, and Babe Ruth to name a few.
