Introduction

Nihon-Odori ('Japan Boulevard') was Yokohama's first modern avenue, laid out in the Meiji era after the port opened, linking Yamashita Park and the prefectural government. Lined with ginkgo trees, it was once voted the finest of Japan's '100 famous streets'. The broad avenue against red-brick buildings is a place to stroll, photograph and feel Yokohama's modern urban planning.
