    Kanagawa Pref. Yokohamashi Kouhoku-ku Shinyokohama 2-14-21
    This food theme park, which opened in the Shin-Yokohama district in 1994, was built around the concept of being able to eat ramen from all over the country without having to fly there. The interior, which recreates a Showa-period retro townscape, hosts famous ramen shops from not just all over Japan but from around the world. Attractions other than eating ramen include a gallery featuring exhibits on the history of ramen, a museum shop that offers souvenir ramen kits, a retro candy shop, events including live music, street performances, and picture story shows, and more. It is located a five-minute walk from JR Shin-Yokohama Station.

    This is a small museum that re-creates the old Tokyo alleys full of ramen shops. There is some text information about ramen and its history but most of it is in Japanese only. It takes 10-15 minutes...

    コロナ非常事態宣言解除後感染対策をしっかりして催し物を再開し、以来一度も感染者を出していないと聞いており、こんなときだが安心して入場できた。 当方コンサートで利用したが、室内だがグッズ売場が入場口の真裏でかなり離れており、利用者が隔離されるような格好になっていた。 ホール内に入る際に検温があり消毒させられたが、グッズ売場までどこにも触る機会がないにも関わらずまた消毒させられ、さらに販売窓口で販売員...

    Kanagawa Pref. Yokohamashi Kouhoku-ku Morokachou 1137
    This shrine is located in Morookacho Town, Kohoku Ward, Yokohama City, and was founded in 724 by the sacred hermit, Zenju. Many of the worshippers come requesting victory, since the shrine crest is the same “Yatagarasu” found on Japan’s national soccer team uniform. “Soccer charms” are sold here as well. Additionally, there is a local museum which displays artifacts from the Jomon period unearthed from the mountain behind the shrine precinct.

    古い歴史のある神社で、熊野山の中腹に鎮座する、和歌山県熊野三社（本宮・那智・速玉）の祭神を祀っている。 「関東随一大霊験所」として知られ、関東地方における熊野信仰の根拠地として、横浜北部の総鎮守の宮となっている。 社紋が「八咫烏」(やたがらす)で、サッカー日本代表のエンブレムと同じことから、「サッカー神社」とも言われている。 この日もサッカー日本代表の必勝絵馬が飾られていました。 鳥居をくぐり、急...

    Kanagawa Yokohama-shi Aoba-ku Shiratoridai 61-12
    "This Shinto shrine is located right in front of the Maekawa jinja mae bus stop and is also a seven-minute walk from Tana Station as well as 15 minutes from Aobadai Station. The shrine was built in 1187 by Inage Shigenari, lord of Masugata Castle, after he received a divine message in a dream. The shrine is dedicated to Yamato Takeru, who took the form of a swan, and thus in the past it was known as ""Swan Maekawa Shrine."" The shrine famously possesses a huge nobori flag said to be the largest in Japan which is stored in a small building; a replica the same size as the original is flown next to the main shrine. The shrine holds all manner of Shinto events, including ceremonies to pray for a safe delivery, weddings, and funerals. There is also a sacred rock pile on the grounds that is said to grant safe childbirth."

    田奈駅から徒歩10分ほど。 社名は「しとどまえかわじんじゃ」。1187年に枡形城主・稲毛重成により創建。祭神は日本武尊、弟橘比売命。1910年に神明社を合祀。一の鳥居は1921年建立、二の鳥居は1988年建立。社殿は1988年築で木造銅板葺き。旧本殿は境内社である伏見稲荷神社・八坂神社の社殿となっている。11月ということもあり、七五三参りの参拝客が複数見られた。

    Kanagawa Yokohama-shi Tsurumi-ku Baba 1-2-1
    "This Soto Zen Buddhist temple is located a three-minute walk from the Nishi-terao-kenkoji-mae bus stop a 15-minute ride from Tsurumi Station on the Yokohama Municipal Bus. Built in 1560 by Suwamikawanokami Umanosuke, fifth lord of Terao Castle and servant to the Odawara Hojo clan, the temple was the family temple of the Suwa clan. The temple's emblem is still the ""Suwa mulberry,"" the informal crest of the Suwa clan. The temple has a bamboo forest-encircled belfry, and on New Year's Eve the temple holds a stunning traditional event in which the bell is rung 108 times as thousands of lights light up the grounds."

    Kanagawa Yokohama-shi Kohoku-ku Tsunashima Higashi 2-10-1
    This Shinto shrine is located a five-minute walk from Tsunashima Station and its approach is also right in front of the Chofukuji mae bus stop. It is believed the shrine was built during the Eiroku era (1558-1570) by a vassal of the Takeda clan to house the spirit of a god ritually transferred from Suwa Taisha Shrine in Shinano Province (now Nagano Prefecture). The god of the shrine is Takeminakata-no-Mikoto, a mighty god of war, bravery, and competition; accordingly, sumo competitions were once held at the shrine that attracted men boasting of their strength from across Musashi Province (now part of Saitama Prefecture, Tokyo, and Kanagawa Prefecture). In most years, the shrine holds its Suwa Shrine Festival on the last Saturday and Sunday in August; one of the largest events in the city, during the festival, many portable shrines and their carriers gather on the grounds. Other festival highlights include night stalls and an Awa Odori dance.

Kanagawa Areas

around-area-map

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.
