Help needed! Directions for Yokohama Bunka Center.

[Dr Feelgood]

Maybe Hisa or anyone else familiar with Tokyo could help me out with this one. I'd need directions as to how to get to the Yokohama Bunka Center from Chibuya?
Thanks.

I'm not a Tokyo boy, so I don't really know. Don't you mean "Yokohama Bunka Taiikukan(gym)"? Are you sure that's Bunka Center?

Anyway, I'll ask around.

[Dr Feelgood]

Sorry, my mistake. It IS the Yokohama Bunka Gym.

Anyway, thank you very much Hisa-san for taking the time to help out... once again

From Shibuya Station, take the Toyoko Line (Yokohama bound). Since Shibuya is the first station on the line, you wouldn't take a wrong direction. Make sure you take a "tokkyu"(special express), not "kyuukoh" (express) or regular train (stops each station).

Get off at Sakuragicho.

At Sakuragicho, take Negishi Line (Ofune bound). Get off at the next station Kannai. People who are familiar with the area wouldn't even take this train but walk from Sakuragicho to Kannai.

You can refer to the map below:

Station is the big box on the right, and the blue circle is the Gym. The closest station exit is "Minamiguchi"(South Exit).


Whenever something bad happened to him during his rookie days, Inoki used to buy a ticket at Shibuya to Sakuragicho and went to a port to see the ships. The person who helped me to get this direction wants you to get the feeling of the young Inoki when you take the train.

Thanks for these very precise directions, Hisa-san (not forgetting the welcome puro touch ).
Sadly enough, the information wasn't for me but for a friend , and I very much doubt he could appreciate the Inoki aspect of the trip as his model in life (and the reason he's going to the GAEA show) is Policeman...
But hopefully, someday I'll be able to make that trip myself!
