Geocoding Japanese cities insert a space between characters and the city is not found

Hi,

I am trying to use Azure Map for geocoding cities and it looks like I am doing something wrong because the result is not really the one wanted.

Can you please help in getting a more accurate result?

I tried those two :

• Tokyo (東京）

https://atlas.microsoft.com/search/address/json?api-version=1.0&query=%E6%9D%B1%E4%BA%AC&subscription-key=＜key＞

This works even it looks like a space is also added.

• Yokohama（横浜）

https://atlas.microsoft.com/search/address/json?api-version=1.0&query=%E6%A8%AA%E6%B5%9C&subscription-key=＜key＞

This result is as following, space in the query, city is found in HongKong and not Japan:
