Informations supplémentaires:
Kamonyama Park is located on the hill overlooking Yokohama Minato Mirai. This park has 200 cherry trees, and a small Japanese pond garden. It was originally known as Railway Hill - Railway Hill used to stand over the sea but after Japan opened its doors to the world, the Yokohama shoreline started to be reclaimed, and so this hill eventually got further and further away from the water. In 1870, in order to build Japan’s first railway between Tokyo and Yokohama, engineers lived on this hill near the spot where the Japanese government planned to place the new Yokohama station - today’s Sakuragi-cho Station. As a result, the hill was nicknamed Tetsudo-yama or Railway Hill. After the railway construction was finished, the land on the hill was sold to the Li family.. Since 1884 the hill has been called Kamonyama Park, because Naosuke Li’s official position was Kamon-no-kami.
