This “ West Keyaki-dori Intersection” is the stage for the memorable scene where Chihaya Hagiwara, the story’s starting point, rides a large motorcycle with Conan on the front.

Recreation and Highlights of the Scene: The guide signs above the intersection and the curve of the ramp leading to the Metropolitan Expressway perfectly match the animated background and the real location. You can experience the movie’s camera angles in real life.

 Tips for Shooting “That Angle”: To recreate the low-angle shot from the movie’s opening, where Chihaya slides her bike in and lifts Conan, try shooting from the sidewalk with the expressway exit gate in the background.

Notes for Location: As this is a high-traffic area, never step onto the roadway or engage in dangerous behavior. Be considerate of pedestrians and finish your photography quickly.

It is the largest green space in the Minatomirai area, offering a superb sense of openness overlooking Yokohama Port.

The headquarters of the Kanagawa Prefectural Police, towering on Kaigan-dori in Naka Ward, Yokohama City. The building’s distinctive and imposing form is depicted extremely realistically in the movie.

Rare Collaboration Poster: In addition to the front of the police headquarters, the angle from the "Yokohama Cosmo World" side across the street is also frequently used in the film. During the movie's release period, you may find special collaboration posters featuring Conan and the Kanagawa Prefectural Police promoting "traffic safety and crime prevention" displayed on bulletin boards around the building, making this a valuable and limited photo spot.

[Yamate Tunnel ~ Motomachi Shopping Street] Chase with "Lucifer"

A tense chase scene where Masumi Sera fiercely pursues the jet-black custom bike "Lucifer." The route used in the film runs from the historic "Yamate Tunnel" to the stylish "Motomachi Shopping Street."

Yamate Tunnel: Opened in the early Showa era, this is Japan's first full-scale concrete arch road tunnel. The massive stone portal further enhances the tension of the chase scene. There is also a pedestrian-only tunnel running parallel, allowing for safe photography on foot.

Motomachi Shopping Street: With over 150 years of history, this sophisticated shopping street developed as a hub for stores catering to foreigners. In the film, bikes race through during times when it is not a pedestrian-only zone on weekdays.

② Driving the Legendary Highway: Hakone Area

The story moves away from the city streets of Yokohama to the majestic, winding roads of misty Hakone. The mountain pass area, where thrilling action scenes unfold, is the perfect zone for car and motorcycle touring locations.

[Anest Iwata Turnpike Hakone] The Climax Stage

This is the leading model for the "highway" in the title, and is famous nationwide among car and motorcycle enthusiasts, as well as being a sacred spot for popular anime. This approximately 14km toll road connects Odawara and Taikanzan, and has been chosen as a location for numerous car magazines and as a motif for car chase scenes in movies.

A must-visit location spot for fans: You can see the actual "emergency escape ramp" installed halfway up the slope, which appears in the film when Chihaya's white motorcycle makes a desperate escape.

Important notes on access: The Turnpike Hakone is a road exclusively for automobiles. Mopeds under 125cc, bicycles, and pedestrians are strictly prohibited. Location on foot is not possible, so be sure to access by private car, rental car, or a motorcycle over 126cc.

  • Toll: Passenger car 900 yen / Motorcycle 650 yen (one way)
  • Access: [By car/motorcycle] Immediately from Odawara-Atsugi Road "Odawara Nishi IC" or Seisho Bypass "Hayakawa IC" (Hakone Odawara Main Line Odawara Tollgate)

[Taikanzan Observatory] Where Memories and Mt. Fuji Intersect

This is the fateful place where Conan and his friends overlooked the entire case and devised their final plan in the story. With Lake Ashi below and the majestic Mt. Fuji beyond, this premium scenic spot offers a 360-degree panoramic view, where you can even see Hatsushima and the Izu Peninsula on clear days.

The moment when Mt. Fuji and the world of the movie overlap: In the scene where Chihaya gazes into the distance and speaks, the beautiful ridgeline visible from Daikanzan perfectly matches the background. The beauty on a sunny day is, of course, breathtaking, but the mysterious atmosphere on days when "thick fog" rolls in, just like in the movie, is irresistible for fans who want to immerse themselves in the film's world.

Hakone Swing: A two-seater swing where you can take photos that look as if you’re flying out toward Mt. Fuji and Lake Ashi. In September 2026, a "special wedding event for riders" is planned here with this spectacular view as the backdrop, making it a must-visit spot throughout 2026.

  • Access: [By car/motorcycle] Immediately after the Anest Iwata Turnpike Hakone "Daikanzan Tollgate." [By public transport] From Hakone Tozan Railway "Hakone-Yumoto Station," take the Hakone Tozan Bus (via Old Highway, bound for Motohakone Port, etc.)

[Hakone Yumoto "Hotel Nanpuso"] The Detective Boys’ Related Inn

"Hotel Nanpuso" is said to be the model for the hot spring inn where Professor Agasa and the Detective Boys relaxed and recovered from their journey. Surrounded by the murmuring Sukumogawa River and lush greenery, it offers a soothing Japanese-style space.

Experience the Story’s Real-Life Atmosphere: This renowned inn has won first place for six consecutive years in Jalan, a major Japanese travel site’s "Most Booked Inn Award" and boasts a review rating of over 4.5. You can enjoy yukata of the same design as those worn by the Detective Boys in the movie, and in the spacious large public bath and open-air bath, you can experience the same luxurious relaxation as in the story, surrounded by rich nature.

Local gourmet "Soshu Beef Kaiseki": Dinner plans include shabu-shabu and steak made with "Soshu Beef," the finest local brand beef from Kanagawa. With its fine texture and exquisite sweetness, Soshu Beef is exactly the model for the meat dish that Genta raved about in the movie.

  • Access: About 7 minutes from Hakone-Yumoto Station by the orange "Shared Shuttle Bus (Taki-dori bound, A course)" operated by the Ryokan Association (Fare: 200 yen for adults)

Finally, here are some techniques and important manners to help those visiting from afar or going on a location for the first time enjoy their trip smoothly and safely.

Transportation Tips: Where to Buy the "Minato Burari Ticket" and the Most Efficient Route

If you want to efficiently explore the Yokohama area, we recommend purchasing the "Minato Burari Ticket" issued by the Yokohama City Transportation Bureau. This ticket allows unlimited rides on city buses and subways around Minato Mirai and Motomachi/Chinatown for one day. You can also purchase the ticket on Klook.

Where to Buy: Station offices at Yokohama Station, Sakuragicho Station, Kannai Station, and major tourist information centers

Sample Efficient Route Using the "Minato Burari Ticket"

  1. Purchase the ticket at Yokohama Station
    Buy the ticket (700 yen for adults, 350 yen for children) at the subway office in Yokohama Station, then board a Yokohama City Bus from the East Exit of Yokohama Station.
  2. Get off at "Pacifico Yokohama"
    From the bus stop, walk to "Keyaki-dori Nishi Intersection" or "Rinko Park." Taking the bus to the venue is more efficient than walking from Sakuragicho Station on the Blue Line subway.
  3. Take the bus again to sightseeing areas such as "Yamashita Pier," "In front of Yamashita Park," or "Motomachi"
    Since you’re in Yokohama, go beyond the Conan pilgrimage spots and enjoy the local attractions.. The Yamashita area and Motomachi Shopping Street are within walking distance. You can also use the city bus, which is covered by the ticket, to get to the "Motomachi" bus stop.

🎫Reserve your "Minato Burari Ticket" on Klook

Location Visit Etiquette

Since the story features the "Traffic Police Unit" and "Highways" many fans visit the location by car or motorcycle. To maintain the good reputation of the series, please strictly observe the following manners.

  1. Consideration around the police headquarters: Never enter the premises without permission, obstruct police vehicles or officers with your camera, or loiter for long periods.
  2. Prohibited acts on toll roads: The Hakone Turnpike is a winding mountain road prone to heavy fog. Parking or getting out of your vehicle for photos in the driving lanes or emergency escape ramps is a violation of traffic laws and can lead to serious accidents.
  3. Manners at accommodations: Do not make loud noises or take photos without permission that could invade the privacy of other guests.
