The Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse is a historic building constructed in the late Meiji (1868 - 1912) and early Taisho periods (1912 - 1926) as a model warehouse for the national government. It was reborn as a cultural and commercial facility in 2002, retaining its original appearance, and continues to be loved by visitors today. The Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse has a perfect location facing the sea, where visitors can enjoy shopping at trendy stores and dining at delicious restaurants.
