A free-entry amusement park on the Minato Mirai canal. Its 112.5-metre Cosmo Clock 21 Ferris wheel is the star of the Yokohama night view.
Yokohama Cosmo World is an urban amusement park on either side of the Minato Mirai canal. Entry is free, and you pay for each ride. Its landmark is the 112.5-metre Cosmo Clock 21 Ferris wheel, once the largest clock Ferris wheel in the world. One rotation takes about 15 minutes, and a ride costs about ¥1,000. In the evening you can enjoy the Minato Mirai night view from the gondola, and the lights of the wheel itself are a popular subject for night photography. Other attractions include a roller coaster that plunges into a pool. Hours are roughly 11:00 to 21:00. The park is closed on most Thursdays, so check the official website. It is about a 2-minute walk from Minato Mirai Station.
