Yokohama is Japan's 2nd largest city in terms of population and is located to the southwest of Tokyo in nearby Kanazawa prefecture. Yokohama was where Commodore Perry first landed in the 1850s and as a result grew from a small village to Japan’s biggest seaport. Yokohama’s Chinatown is the largest in Japan, and one of the largest anywhere in the world. [edit text][editors]
