Yokohama Chinatown

Three restored Showa period houses re-opened as a small commercial initiative with a beer hall and restaurant, olive oil store, and bakery. Very charming little place.

As you wander the streets of Yanesen, make a detour via this mud and tile wall. Built in the latter half of the Edo period, this 40m x 2m section has managed to survive the natural disasters and air raids, and today stands as a perfect representation of how the city would have been divided up in times gone by.
