こちらは、港が見えるが丘公園に隣にある記念館です。「鞍馬天狗」シリーズの生みの親で作家人生を紹介する文学館だそうです。今回、記念館は訪問しないで周りのイングリッシュローズガーデンが素晴らしかったです。

Kanagawa Yokohama-shi Naka-ku Yamatecho 230

This museum is located in the center of Yamashita Park a 12-minute walk from Ishikawacho Station and 15 minutes from Motomachi-Chukagai Station. The park is also located next to the Yamatecho bus stop and the Mugitacho bus stop. In 1876, tennis was introduced to Yokohama and it is believed that the first tennis match ever in Japan was held here after a tennis court was built in the park. Accordingly, it is seen as the birthplace of tennis in Japan, and inside the museum visitors can see 100-year-old tennis rackets as well as exhibits which reveal the changes in rackets and tennis wear throughout the years.

Kanagawa Areas

Kanagawa prefecture acts as an extension of the Tokyo metropolis that spills over into coastal towns, most notably Yokohama city, heavily populated and known for its Chinatown and seaside attractions. Just the right distance for a day trip out of Tokyo, Kanagawa is home to some of Tokyo’s most accessible beaches, including around Kamakura, best known for its Big Buddha. Visitors can also travel a little farther afield for a weekend at Hakone onsen town.
