We took a city bus to Sankeien Garden.  By the main pond, the visitors enjoyed Japanese beauty to their hearts’ content viewing Kakushokaku―the Palace of Flying Crane, the three storied pagoda, and a small boat on the quiet pond.  Swiss photography crew were working hard to take photos of a Japanese woman showing some Karate stances on the lawn of the front garden of Rinshunkaku―the Spring Observing House.  Gekkaden― the Palace of Moonlight is made of wood with paper sliding door.  They enjoyed the world of paper and wood and the taste of the simple.When we walked on the main street of Yokohama Chinatown, they were surprised at how big and clean it was.
