Hikawa Maru
Hikawa Maru is a retired 1930 ocean liner permanently docked at Yamashita Park, having once ferried passengers, including notable figures like Charlie Chaplin, between Yokohama and Seattle before later service in various capacities through World War II and beyond. Preserved cabins, dining rooms, and engine areas let visitors walk through the ship as it operated during its passenger service heyday.
It's a straightforward, contained stop easily combined with a walk through the adjacent Yamashita Park along Yokohama's waterfront.
