Hi,
I was thinking of going to Yokohama for the day tomorrow, China Town and Sankei-en Garden are the places I have on my list.
I’m staying at airBnB a few stations away from Tokyo station. What is the easiest way to get to China Town? I was thinking of going there first, having lunch, and then going to see the gardens.
Is it close enough to walk from China Town to the garden? Thanks in advance

The China Town is located at Motomachi Chukagai Station on Minato-Mirai Line. Or you can go there by walking from Ishikawacho Station or Kannai Station on the JR Negishi Line/JR Keihin Tohoku Line. If you’re starting from Tokyo Station, then the easiest way is to get on the JR Keihin Tohoku Line and stay on until you get to Ishikawacho Station. But be careful, sometimes there are trains that only go part of the way, so be sure you get on a train that has the destination of Ofuna Station or Isogo Station.
It’s pretty far to walk from China Town to the Sankeien Garden, so it’s better to take the JR Negishi Line/JR Keihin Tohoku Line from Ishikawacho station to Negishi Station. It’s a 10 min walk from there, or you can take the bus.
