White Tiger
Original Text
... Empei-Mon (West Gate), the west gate of Yokohama Chinatown. It was built according to ancient Chinese science, based on the belief of the protection god, the west is white tiger, 白虎: White Tiger ( Baihu:Bai...
It is the "Enpei Gate", which is the west gate of Yokohama Chinatown. Enpei Gate seems to be a gate protected by a white tiger. Therefore, the color of the gate is also white.
This is the second gate that you will dive when going to Chinatown from JR Ishikawacho Station. This illuminated gate stands out because there is not much light at night. There is Xiyang Gate and this gate on the west side of Chinatown, but if you pass through here, you will finally be in Chinatown. If you enter straight, you will reach Chinatown Boulevard.
I stopped by when I took a walk in Yokohama Chinatown in July. It is 1 of the pairou (gate) in Chinatown. According to the explanation, the Enpei Gate was built as the first Nishitai Gate in 1970, and the second was completed in 1994. It is a magnificent gate of the Qing Dynasty architectural style with a width 11.50 meter, a height of 12 meters, and reinforced concrete. If you are interested, why not visit Chinatown because there are 10 pailou?
I walked to Chinatown on foot from Ishikawacho Station. At that time, it is the first gate to enter Chinatown. The route from Ishikawacho Station is relatively vacant, so it's easy to take pictures. Even if you pass through this gate, you will pass through schools and houses for a while, and you will gradually see shops like Chinatown. The gate is lit up at night, but the surroundings are dark with such buildings, so the atmosphere is good.
