The International Horticultural Exposition, which will be held from March 2027, is the first World Exposition held in Yokohama, the so-called "Exposition", which will be held for the first time in Yokohama, and will be excited about cutting-edge horticulture, agriculture, and various food cultures around the world. We will have attractive content.
