- One-stop Service to Introduce Latest Materials, Statistical Data and 
Convenient Tools -

Yokohama Convention & Visitors Bureau opened websites on September 20, 2019, to 
provide information on tourism and the meeting industry in Yokohama to news 
media and tourism business operators in Japan and overseas.

The websites, titled "MEDIA & TRAVEL TRADE," provide information on various 
surveys and statistic data on tourism in Yokohama as well as programs to 
support tourism business operators. Visitors to the websites can download 
images, videos and other materials, for which there has been strong demand from 
media outlets.

In an effort to promote tourism in Yokohama and attract travelers to the 
capital city of Kanagawa Prefecture, Yokohama Convention & Visitors Bureau is 
determined to improve the websites to be useful for news organizations 
gathering information on Yokohama and tourism businesses dealing with package 
tours of the city on the occasions of world-class sporting events, such as the 
Rugby World Cup 2019 (TM) and the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and Paralympics.
