Located just a 1-minute walk from Bashamichi Station, the Kanagawa Prefectural Museum of History is housed in a historic building that was originally used as the Yokohama Specie Bank headquarters. This architectural gem has stood for over 120 years. The museum features exhibits that allow visitors to learn about the history of Kanagawa Prefecture. However, it is currently closed for renovations and will remain so until September 2026. While you cannot enter the building, its striking presence makes it worth a visit. Be sure to stop by and admire its historical significance. 📍Address: 5-60 Minami-Nakadori, Naka-ku, Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture, 231-0006

#Spring0yentrip "A history museum that utilizes the building of the former Yokohama Specie Bank. It exhibits a wide range of materials, from archaeology to ethnography, focusing on the history of Yokohama and Kanagawa from the end of the Edo period to modern times. You will be overwhelmed by the beauty of the exterior, and inside the museum you can enjoy a time travel from the Edo period to the Meiji period. ▶Access: 10 minutes' walk from JR Kannai Station / 5 minutes' walk from Nihon-Odori Station ▶Tips: It's worth visiting the building / The permanent exhibition is recommended for those who like to take their time!

#ancienttownvibes Better than I expected. Staff were really friendly although because I can speak Japanese I’m not sure if they could speak English. The exhibit rooms and the exhibits themselves are excellent if somewhat low-lit. There are also explanations in English in many places. Definitely worth a trip there if you are in the vicinity and have time.This is a nice museum with lots of interesting historical and cultural displays that spans from the paleolithic period to post war Japan. It was amazing to see how early on humans began to build tools and pottery. Even more interesting was to see how far back the roots of some current day Japanese culture originated from. The only reason a five star is not given is because the museum is not laid out in chronological order. Displays jump between time periods and the layout is such that there are small rooms that can easily be missed because they are off to the side or at the end of a corridor. Regardless, it is a fascinating museum with lots of interesting cultural displays and is well worth a visit.

Kanagawa Prefectural Museum of Cultural History exhibits displays on Kanagawa's history and culture. Access to books and use of videos is available.
