Aso Building - Tekito Theme Park Opens

Yokohama Coast, located on the 2nd floor of the Aso Building, an experience and entertainment complex in Yokohama, will host the "Tekito~" theme park "Tekito~" Railway Exhibition from August 6 (Sat) to November 27 (Sun), 2022.The "Tekito~na Railway Exhibition" is a theme park where both children and adults can enjoy themselves and feel the "Tekito~" of being free from the rules and restrictions of everyday life, not to mention the inherent charm of the railroad. The goal is for visitors, especially the younger generation, to feel relaxed and able to accept the facts in front of them through the experience of facing the word "tekito~" once again. The theme park is designed for families, couples, friends, and railroad fans alike to enjoy. Google Map > https://goo.gl/maps/nAzgivhvoWM6Zmpy8

Rigoletto Ocean Club - Homemade Italian

The Rigoletto Ocean Club is located near the northwest exit of Yokohama Station. It is a Spanish-Italian restaurant that offers homemade pizzas, fresh pasta, and other Italian dishes, as well as small Spanish dishes such as "tapas".Upon entering the restaurant, the first thing that catches the eye is the kitchen and counter bar.The back wall is entirely made of glass, letting in great light.Today we ordered the pizza lunch "Bismarck with prosciutto and asparagus".

There is also a wide variety of pasta, but from the moment you see the woodfired pizza oven, you have to have a pizza!

The set salad has a refreshing apple dressing. The straw for the drinks is an environmentally friendly stainless steel straw. Rigoletto's is not only delicious, but also proactive in its pursuit of what a restaurant should be, using only natural ingredients and considering environmental issues.Google Map > https://g.page/RIGOLETTOyokohama?share

Dream Drive - Building, selling, and renting campervans.

“Whenever I recall and share childhood stories from growing up in the UK and Australia, they almost always begin with a road trip. I had to ask myself “why? why do most of my most memorable childhood stories begin with a journey, and why have I not been making these memories here in Japan? While working in an office in Tokyo for about 10 years, I came to the realization that many Japanese are traveling and experiencing RV road trips abroad in the United States, Australia, Europe, etc. but not doing so in their own country. Japan is in my opinion one of, if not the best country for free-spirited road trip travel as the roads are safe and there are thousands of clean toilets and onsen all throughout the country. My dream with starting this company was to not only build great campervans but also help put Japan on the global map as a top road trip destination.”
