Yokohama Landmark Tower & Queen's Square Yokohama

Yokohama Landmark Tower is a super-high-rise complex building that is 296m tall, the tallest building within the aviation law limit, and was the tallest in Japan for about 20 years since its completion in 1993. It was designed using the best of technology, taking into account the effects of sea breezes and the possibility of disasters in a country prone to earthquakes. With a total floor area of 392,885m2, it is centered around offices, hotels, and a shopping mall, and is equipped with a variety of facilities such as an observation deck, a multipurpose hall, and even a plaza that uses a restored stone dock, forming an attractive town. It is also connected to the adjacent complex, Queen's Square Yokohama, and the commercial mall on the lower floors is also connected to a subway station, making it a convenient space that has become an area that is not only used for business purposes but also attracts a constant stream of local people and tourists.
