Port Opening Memorial Hall

Yokohama Kaigang Memorial Hall is a building built to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Yokohama Kaigang. The exterior is a classic European-style building. It should be the tallest building in Yokohama at that time. It is now a national-level cultural relics in Japan. Yokohama is one of the earliest ports opened in Japan. The museum retains relevant information and cultural relics. Because it was not open, I didn't go in.

Yokohama is the earliest open city in Japan. Its experience is similar to that of Guangzhou in China. It is also threatened by imperialist warships and guns to open ports. The difference is that the Mikado Meiji took the initiative to change and be passive, making Yokohama a a port city facing the Pacific Ocean.

Yokohama, as a port city, is very beautiful. It's also the second largest city in Japan. It's very close to Tokyo. It's more than half an hour's subway journey. It's very nice to know the port culture here. I like it.
