Q
I heard that Yokohama is the birthplace of Japanese street trees. Is that true?
A
It was in 1867 that willows and pine street trees were planted in Basyamichi, Naka Ward. It is the birthplace of modern street trees.
To commemorate this, a monument to "Modern Road Tree Birthrate Shonochi" has been built on Basyamichi Square.
