The Yokohama Archives of History is a museum dedicated to the harbor city’s official opening to Western trade in the early 1850s—an event that played a crucial role in the collapse of the Tokugawa Shogunate military dictatorship and the start of the Meiji Period in 1868.

With an entrance fee of only 200 yen for adults, this museum offers a fascinating look at the Meiji Period, with a special focus on Yokohama’s pivotal role in this transformative era.
