Yokohama (Japanese: 横浜 Hepburn: Yokohama, pronounced [jokoꜜhama] ( listen)) is the

second largest city in Japan by population, after Tokyo, and the most populous municipality of
Japan. It is the capital city of Kanagawa Prefecture. It lies on Tokyo Bay, south of Tokyo, in
the Kantō region of the main island of Honshu. It is a major commercial hub of the Greater Tokyo
Area.
Yokohama's population of 3.7 million makes it Japan's largest city after the special wards of
Tokyo. Yokohama developed rapidly as Japan's prominent port city following the end of Japan's
relative isolation in the mid-19th century, and is today one of its major ports along
with Kobe, Osaka, Nagoya, Hakata, Tokyo, and Chiba.

History[edit]

Opening of the Treaty Port (1859–1868)[edit]

Yokohama 14 July 1853. Lithograph by Sarony & Co., 1855, after Wilhelm Heine

Yokohama was a small fishing village up to the end of the feudal Edo period, when Japan held a
policy of national seclusion, having little contact with foreigners.[2] A major turning point in
Japanese history happened in 1853–54, when Commodore Matthew Perryarrived just south of
Yokohama with a fleet of American warships, demanding that Japan open several ports for
commerce, and the Tokugawa shogunate agreed by signing the Treaty of Peace and Amity.[3]
It was initially agreed that one of the ports to be opened to foreign ships would be the bustling
town of Kanagawa-juku (in what is now Kanagawa Ward) on the Tōkaidō, a strategic highway
that linked Edo to Kyoto and Osaka. However, the Tokugawa shogunatedecided that Kanagawa-
juku was too close to the Tōkaidō for comfort, and port facilities were instead built across the inlet
in the sleepy fishing village of Yokohama. The Port of Yokohama was officially opened on June
2, 1859.[4]
Yokohama quickly became the base of foreign trade in Japan. Foreigners initially occupied the
low-lying district of the city called Kannai, residential districts later expanding as the settlement
grew to incorporate much of the elevated Yamate district overlooking the city, commonly referred
to by English speaking residents as The Bluff.

Kannai, the foreign trade and commercial district (literally, inside the barrier), was surrounded by
a moat, foreign residents enjoying extraterritorial status both within and outside the compound.
Interactions with the local population, particularly young samurai, outside the settlement
inevitably caused problems; the Namamugi Incident, one of the events that preceded the
downfall of the shogunate, took place in what is now Tsurumi Ward in 1862, and prompted
the Bombardment of Kagoshima in 1863.
To protect British commercial and diplomatic interests in Yokohama a military garrison was
established in 1862. With the growth in trade increasing numbers of Chinese also came to settle
in the city.[5] Yokohama was the scene of many notable firsts for Japan including the growing
acceptance of western fashion, photography by pioneers such as Felice Beato, Japan's first
English language newspaper, the Japan Herald published in 1861 and in 1865 the first ice
cream and beer to be produced in Japan.[6] Recreational sports introduced to Japan by foreign
residents in Yokohama included European style horse racing in 1862, cricket in 1863[7] and rugby
union in 1866. A great fire destroyed much of the foreign settlement on November 26, 1866
and smallpox was a recurrent public health hazard, but the city continued to grow rapidly
attracting both foreigners and local Japanese.
Meiji and Taisho Periods (1868–1923)[edit]

Street scene c. 1880.

After the Meiji Restoration of 1868, the port was developed for trading silk, the main trading
partner being Great Britain. Western influence and technological transfer contributed to the
establishment of Japan's first daily newspaper (1870), first gas-powered street lamps (1872) and
Japan's first railway constructed in the same year to connect Yokohama
to Shinagawa and Shinbashi in Tokyo. In 1872 Jules Verne portrayed Yokohama, which he had
never visited, in an episode of his widely read Around the World in Eighty Days, capturing the
atmosphere of the fast-developing, internationally oriented Japanese city.
In 1887, a British merchant, Samuel Cocking, built the city's first power plant. At first for his own
use, this coal-burning plant became the basis for the Yokohama Cooperative Electric Light
Company. The city was officially incorporated on April 1, 1889.[8] By the time
the extraterritoriality of foreigner areas was abolished in 1899, Yokohama was the most
international city in Japan, with foreigner areas stretching from Kannai to the Bluff area and the
large Yokohama Chinatown.
The early 20th century was marked by rapid growth of industry. Entrepreneurs built factories
along reclaimed land to the north of the city toward Kawasaki, which eventually grew to be
the Keihin Industrial Area. The growth of Japanese industry brought affluence, and many wealthy
trading families constructed sprawling residences there, while the rapid influx of population from
Japan and Korea also led to the formation of Kojiki-Yato, then the largest slum in Japan.
Great Kanto earthquake and the Second World War (1923–1945)[edit]
Much of Yokohama was destroyed on September 1, 1923 by the Great Kantō earthquake. The
Yokohama police reported casualties at 30,771 dead and 47,908 injured, out of a pre-earthquake
population of 434,170.[9] Fuelled by rumours of rebellion and sabotage, vigilante mobs thereupon
murdered many Koreans in the Kojiki-yato slum.[10] Many people believed that Koreans
used black magic to cause the earthquake. Martial law was in place until November 19. Rubble
from the quake was used to reclaim land for parks, the most famous being the Yamashita
Park on the waterfront which opened in 1930.
Yokohama was rebuilt, only to be destroyed again by thirty-odd U.S. air raids during World War
II. An estimated seven or eight thousand people were killed in a single morning on May 29, 1945
in what is now known as the Great Yokohama Air Raid, when B-29s firebombed the city and in
just one hour and nine minutes reduced 42% of it to rubble.[8]
Post-World War II growth[edit]

During the Korean War, the United States Navy used Yokohama's port as a transshipment base. This ship
departed Yokohama in 1951, carrying war dead home to the U.S.

During the American occupation, Yokohama was a major transshipment base for American
supplies and personnel, especially during the Korean War. After the occupation, most local U.S.
naval activity moved from Yokohama to an American base in nearby Yokosuka.
The city was designated by government ordinance on September 1, 1956.[citation needed]
The city's tram and trolleybus system was abolished in 1972, the same year as the opening of
the first line of Yokohama Municipal Subway.

Construction of Minato Mirai 21 ("Port Future 21"), a major urban development project on
reclaimed land, started in 1983. Minato Mirai 21 hosted the Yokohama Exotic Showcase in 1989,
which saw the first public operation of maglev trains in Japan and the opening of Cosmo
Clock 21, then the tallest Ferris wheel in the world. The 860m-long Yokohama Bay
Bridge opened in the same year.
In 1993, Minato Mirai saw the opening of the Yokohama Landmark Tower, the second tallest
building in Japan.
The 2002 FIFA World Cup final was held in June at the International Stadium Yokohama.
In 2009, the city marked the 150th anniversary of the opening of the port and the 120th
anniversary of the commencement of the City Administration. An early part in the
commemoration project incorporated the Fourth Tokyo International Conference on African
Development(TICAD IV) which was held in Yokohama in May 2008.
In November 2010, Yokohama hosted the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting.

Geography[edit]
Climate[edit]
Yokohama features a humid subtropical climate (Köppen: Cfa) with hot and humid summers and
chilly winters. Weatherwise, Yokohama has a mixed bag of rain, clouds and sun, although in
Winter, it is surprisingly sunny, more so than Southern Spain. Winter temperatures rarely drop
below freezing, while summer can get quite warm due to the effects of humidiy.[11] The coldest
temperature was on 24 January 1927 when −8.2 °C (17.2 °F) was reached, whilst the hottest day
was 11 August 2013 at 37.4 °C (99.3 °F). The highest monthly rainfall has been in October 2004
with 761.5 millimetres (30.0 in), closely followed by July 1941 with 753.4 millimetres (29.66 in),
whilst December and January have recorded no measurable precipitation three times each.
