Yamashita Park Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Yamashita Park is closely connected to Yokohama Port. The park is very worth seeing are the tiles paved on the park road, followed by the more than 100 ancient ginkgo trees planted on both sides of the road. Walking on the tiled road, looking at the tall ginkgo trees on both sides and the seascape in the distance, is really a very comforting thing. Yamashita Park is a very famous park in Yokohama. It is a park that was reclaimed from the sea, and the earthwork required came from the waste land and rubble of the Great Kanto Earthquake. After four years of reclamation construction, it was opened to the outside world in 1930. There are many sculptures and monuments in the park, represented by the "Guardian of Water" donated by the city of San Diego, the statue of "Girl with Red Shoes", the protagonist in nursery rhymes, and the monument of "Mr. Sailor of the Seagull". There is also a cruise ship "Hakimaru" docked at the pier of the park. From 1930 to 1960, she was a regular cruise ship that sailed between Japan and North America. It was a very luxurious cruise ship in Japan at that time, and was titled "Queen of the Pacific". It has been converted into a sightseeing commemorative boat for the public to visit. In addition, there is a lighthouse with a tower height of 106 meters in the park. It was built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the opening of Yokohama Port. It is the tallest decagonal lighthouse in the world. Climbing to the observatory at the top of the tower, you can take a look at the surrounding scenery, including Mount Fuji, Tokyo Bay, Boso Peninsula, Yokohama Port and MM21, especially the night view of Yokohama area is intoxicating.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful garden. There are a lot of flowers, and with the view of the ocean, it’s amazing!
Himashita Park is a park that opened in March 1930. It was buried by recycling the wreckage of the Great Kanto Earthquake. It is a park with many places to see, including sea views, monuments and monuments. The view of the Yokohama Bay Bridge and the boat crossing the harbour is quite romantic. Many monuments here can feel the rich interaction with foreign countries, the "Indian Water Tower" donated by the Japan Indian Association in 1937, and the sister city of San Diego, the United States, donated the "Water Guard". In addition, each spring and autumn, about 160 roses and about 1,900 flowers in the "Rose Garden of the Future" are also a point worth seeing.
Shanxia Park is one of the landscapes facing Yokohama Port. The park is not big and backed by China Street subway station. It is very convenient to visit. Go north and there are red brick warehouses and future 21 coastal scenic spots. The location of the park is made up of reclamation. There is no twists and turns of the natural coast. The straight trails and the brushed breakwater are also not fun. There are many landscape towers and museums around the park. If you have enough planning, it is more comfortable to stay here for one or two nights.
Next to Yamashita Park is China Street and the Gaoda Factory, a park suitable for walking.
Beautiful garden, enjoy walking. Especially in the evening, the trees are beautiful.
