Yokohama, Kanagawa, Japan - virtual tour
Yokohama, officially the City of Yokohama, is the second largest city in Japan by population, and most populous municipality of Japan. It is the capital city of Kanagawa Prefecture. It lies on Tokyo Bay, south of Tokyo, in the Kantō region of the main island of Honshu. It is a major commercial hub of the Greater Tokyo Area.
The historic downtown port district, location of the first foreign settlement, is known as Kannai. Next to the waterfront Yamashita Park is the museum ship, Hikawa Maru, and the Yokohama Marine Tower, the tallest inland lighthouse in the world. Further inland lies Yokohama Chinatown, the largest Chinatown in Japan and one of the largest in the world. Nearby is Yokohama Stadium, the Yokohama Silk Museum, and the Yokohama Doll Museum. The Isezakichō and Noge areas offer many colourful shops and bars that, with their restaurants and stores catering to residents from China, Thailand, South Korea, and other countries, have an increasingly international flavour.
The small but fashionable Motomachi shopping area leads up to Yamate, or The Bluff as it used to be known, a 19th/early 20th century Westerners' settlement overlooking the harbour, scattered with foreigners' mansions. A foreigners' cemetery and the Harbour View Park is in the area. Within the park are a rose garden and the Kanagawa Museum of Modern Literature.
There are various points of interest in the futuristic Minato Mirai 21 harbourside redevelopment. The highlights are the Landmark Tower which was the tallest building in Japan, Queen's Square Yokohama and the Cosmo Clock 21, which was the tallest Ferris wheel in the world when it was built in 1989 and which also doubles as the world's biggest clock.
The Shin-Yokohama district, where the Shinkansen station is located, is some distance away from the harbour area, and features the 17,000 capacity Yokohama Arena, the Shin-Yokohama Raumen Museum and Nissan Stadium, known as the International Stadium Yokohama when it was the setting for the final for the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
The city is home to the Central League baseball team, the Yokohama BayStars, and the soccer teams, Yokohama F. Marinos and Yokohama F.C.
Sankei-en is a traditional Japanese-style garden in Naka Ward. Designed by businessman Tomitaro Hara, it contains seventeen old buildings brought from all over Japan, ten of which have been declared Important National Cultural Properties.

三溪園 横浜 Sankeien Garden, Yokohama JAPAN
Sankei-en 三溪園 is a traditional Japanese-style garden in Naka Ward, Yokohama, Japan, which opened in 1906. Sankei-en was designed and built by Tomitaro Hara 原富太郎 (1868--1939), known by the pseudonym Sankei Hara, who was a silk trader. Almost all of its buildings are historically significant structures bought by Hara himself in locations all over the country, among them Tokyo, Kyoto, Kamakura, Gifu Prefecture, and Wakayama prefecture. Ten have been declared Important Cultural Property, and three more are Tangible Cultural Properties of Japan designated by the City of Yokohama. Badly damaged during World War II, the garden was donated in 1953 to the City of Yokohama, which entrusted it to the Sankei-en Hoshōkai Foundation 三溪園保勝会. Sankei-en was then restored almost to its pre-war condition.
Japan: Part 1 - Yokohama
In August, our family took a two week trip to Japan. I believe this was Lexi's first time in a plane & considering the long (~10h) flight, she did really well. We spent several days in Yokohama, going to Chinatown (the cleanest one ever!) and the Cup Noodles Museum. There, we selected a soup flavor & four ingredients to make our own custom Cup Noodles.

Sankeien Garden, Yokohama in 4K - 三渓園●横浜 - Japan As It Truly Is
Sankeien Garden is one of the Tokyo area's most exquisite gardens, yet few ever see it. Discover what they are all missing here.
Some traditional garden lovers may say that Sankeien Garden (三溪園) is the most beautiful in the Tokyo area (Kanto). That is debatable, but it most certainly is a contender. You could spend hours exploring the tranquil beauty as well as a number of historical buildings and a pagoda from across Japan. It is no surprise that many young Japanese women have wedding photos taken at Sankeien, and a visit is surely going to be a highlight of any Japan trip.
Sankeien Garden opened in 1906. It was designed and built by Tomitaro Hara, a successful silk trader and art collector. Sankeien took 6 years to build and the garden covers over 180,000 sq. meters. After Sankeien was severely damaged during WWII, the Hara family donated it to the city of Yokohama. Some of the more notable structures are the 3-story pagoda from the former Tomyoji Temple in Kyoto, as well as its main hall, plus the former Yanohara House, a wealthy family's house from Shirakawago Village, in Gifu. Spring to autumn is the best time to visit Sankeien.
Hours open: 9:00 to 5:00 PM (last entry 4:30 PM)
Entrance fee : ¥700
Garden closed: Dec 29-31

Kanagawa Yokohama Sankei-en Garden - 三溪園 - 4K Ultra HD
Located outside of Yokohama and somehow in the middle of an industrial area, Sankei-en garden is an oasis of beauty and calm. Erected in 1904 by a silk trader named Tomitaro Hara, also known as Hara Sankei, this garden features, in one location, the many wonders of Japan.
Thanks to his fortune, Tomitaro Hara brought from different places across Japan, such as Tokyo, Kyoto, Kamakura, Gifu and Wakayama, many historically significant structures. These include an elegant daimyo (feudal lord) residence, a few tea houses and even the main hall and three storied pagoda of Kyoto's old Tomyoji temple.

Sankeien Garden [Yokohama] 三渓園・横浜
Sankeien Garden is a vast classical Japanese garden covering over 175,000 square meters, renowned for its seasonal beauty.
Sankeien contains many hisotrical houses and buildings that are recognized as being culturally significant by the government. These buildings were brought to the park from locations all over Japan, and include a three storied pagoda located high up on a hill, deep inside the garden. This pagoda, originally constructed in Kyoto in the mid-1400s, was relocated to Sankei-en in 1914.
The entire garden was once the private home of Tomitaro “Sankei” Hara (1869-1939) an extremely wealthy silk merchant. It was opened to the public in 1906.
As you stroll through the park you will find bridges, streams, small waterfalls, bamboo groves, and ponds. [....]

Yokohama (横浜市 Yokohama-shi?) (About this sound listen (help·info)), officially the City of Yokohama, is the second largest city in Japan by population after Tokyo, and most populous municipality of Japan. It is the capital city of Kanagawa Prefecture. It lies on Tokyo Bay, south of Tokyo, in the Kantō region of the main island of Honshu. It is a major commercial hub of the Greater Tokyo Area.
Yokohama's population of 3.7 million makes it Japan's largest incorporated city.[2] Yokohama developed rapidly as Japan's prominent port city following the end of Japan's relative isolation in the mid-19th century, and is today one of its major ports along with Kobe, Osaka, Nagoya, Hakata, Tokyo, and Chiba.Yokohama was a small fishing village up to the end of the feudal Edo period, when Japan held a policy of national seclusion, having little contact with foreigners.[3] A major turning point in Japanese history happened in 1853–54, when Commodore Matthew Perry arrived just south of Yokohama with a fleet of American warships, demanding that Japan open several ports for commerce, and the Tokugawa shogunate agreed by signing the Treaty of Peace and Amity.[4]
It was initially agreed that one of the ports to be opened to foreign ships would be the bustling town of Kanagawa-juku (in what is now Kanagawa Ward) on the Tōkaidō, a strategic highway that linked Edo to Kyoto and Osaka. However, the Tokugawa shogunate decided that Kanagawa-juku was too close to the Tōkaidō for comfort, and port facilities were instead built across the inlet in the sleepy fishing village of Yokohama. The Port of Yokohama was opened on June 2, 1859
Yokohama quickly became the base of foreign trade in Japan. Foreigners initially occupied the low-lying district of the city called Kannai, residential districts later expanding as the settlement grew to incorporate much of the elevated Yamate district overlooking the city, commonly referred to by English speaking residents as The Bluff.
Kannai, the foreign trade and commercial district (literally, inside the barrier), was surrounded by a moat, foreign residents enjoying extraterritorial status both within and outside the compound. Interactions with the local population, particularly young samurai, outside the settlement inevitably caused problems; the Namamugi Incident, one of the events that preceded the downfall of the shogunate, took place in what is now Tsurumi Ward in 1862, and prompted the brief Anglo-Japanese War of 1863.
Japan's first English language newspaper, the Japan Herald, was first published in Yokohama 1861. In 1865 the first ice cream and first beer in Japan were manufactured in the city.[6] Chinese immigrants came to Yokohama in increasing numbers.[7]
After the Meiji Restoration of 1868, the port was developed for trading silk, the main trading partner being Great Britain. Many Western influences first reached Japan in Yokohama, including Japan's first daily newspaper (1870) and first gas-powered street lamps (1872). Japan's first railway was constructed in the same year to connect Yokohama to Shinagawa and Shinbashi in Tokyo. In the same year, Jules Verne set Yokohama, which he had never visited, in an episode of his widely read Around the World in Eighty Days, capturing the atmosphere of a fast-developing, Western-oriented Japanese city.In 1887, a British merchant, Samuel Cocking, built the city's first power plant. At first for his own use, this coal-burning plant became the basis for the Yokohama Cooperative Electric Light Company. The city was officially incorporated on April 1, 1889.[8] By the time the extraterritoriality of foreigner areas was abolished in 1899, Yokohama was the most international city in Japan, with foreigner areas stretching from Kannai to the Bluff area and the large Yokohama Chinatown.
The early 20th century was marked by rapid growth of industry. Entrepreneurs built factories along reclaimed land to the north of the city toward Kawasaki, which eventually grew to be the Keihin Industrial Area. The growth of Japanese industry brought affluence, and many wealthy trading families constructed sprawling residences there, while the rapid influx of population from Japan and Korea also led to the formation of Kojiki-Yato, then the largest slum in Japan.

????ENGLISH
Sankeien is a traditional and typical Japanese-style garden designed and landscaped by Sankei Hara ( his real name was Tomitaro Hara) , a wealthy businessman in the silk trade.
He reconstructed buildings of historic importance from places such as Kyoto and Kamakura in this garden, which was opend to the public as ”Sankeien”in 1906.
In the garden, whose surface extends to 175000㎡, seventeen old buildings of high historic value are skillfully arranged in harmony with the seasonal changes of the natural scenery.
The Second World War caused great damage, and in 1953 the property was transferred from the Harafamily to the care of the Sankeien Hoshokai foundation. Restoration works were carried out, and five years later, Sankeien had nearly recovered its former appearance.

三溪園は生糸貿易により財を成した実業家 原 三溪によって、1906年(明治39)5月1日に公開されました。175,000m2に及ぶ園内には京都や鎌倉などから移築された歴史的に価値の高い建造物が巧みに配置されています。(現在、重要文化財10棟・横浜市指定有形文化財3棟)
東京湾を望む横浜の東南部・本牧に広がる広大な土地は、三溪の手により1902年(明治35)頃から造成が始められ、1914年(大正3)に外苑、1922年(大正11)に内苑が完成するに至りました。三溪が存命中は、新進芸術家の育成と支援の場ともなり、前田青邨の「神輿振」、横山大観の「柳蔭」、下村観山の「弱法師」など近代日本画を代表する多くの作品が園内で生まれました。その後、戦災により大きな被害をうけ、1953年(昭和28年)、原家から横浜市に譲渡・寄贈されるのを機に、財団法人三溪園保勝会が設立され、復旧工事を実施し現在に至ります。
