Description
In Meiji 5 (1872), the first railroad in Japan opened between Yokohama and Shimbashi, connecting the distance of 29km.
The first Yokohama Station was built near the current Sakuragi-cho Station.
In front of the south gates is a historical exhibition gallery where you can see how the old station used to be.
