When you think of Kanagawa Station, you might think of its famous station building, but another appealing aspect is its proximity to Yokohama Central Market, where you can enjoy fresh seafood!
Let's head to Chuo Market Street from Kanagawa Station, crossing the Chuo Market Entrance intersection on Daiichi Keihin.
You'll arrive at the Taki River Canal.

There are three stools where you can sit and rest on the bridge over the Taki River.
It's convenient for a quick break when you're visiting the central market.
... By the way, I couldn't find the name of the bridge. If anyone knows, please let me know!

There's nothing particularly special about it, but you can relax while watching the small boats moored in the canal and the ducks.

There were groups of Tufted Ducks♪ I don't have any food, sorry...

From the bench, you can see the high-rise apartments in the Cotton Harbor redevelopment area in the bay area.
There was a time when we wondered if Cotton Harbor was going to be alright, but after a 12-year break, sales have resumed, and it seems to be regaining its vitality.

Now, near the benches, there are abandoned shops that once bustled with wholesale trade in the central market.
However, there are still operating stores, and you can purchase goods relatively cheaply, so it's fun to take a look around.
Also, nearby is a cafe of "Gateau Yokohama," which is called a legendary cheesecake!
You can enjoy a cake while gazing at the canal, and it's recommended because it's usually not crowded.

And from Chuo Market Street, you can walk to the desirable Yokohama Portside area.
I'd love to live in a bay area apartment...!
Oh yes, the rest spot at "Portside Park", which is close to here, is highly recommended, so please stop by.


Since you're here, let's also visit Yokohama Central Market.
It might seem a bit intimidating at first glance, but there is a food court where you can easily enjoy it, so you can enjoy a seafood lunch even on holidays!
The advantage is that it's not very crowded, and Pento, who loves fish, has been there about three times (laughs).

The food court is like this! It's compact, but the freshness and taste are top-notch!
Personally, I recommend the "Omakase Teishoku" (chef's choice set meal) at Momijiya!
Why not enjoy a casual seafood lunch in Yokohama!?
So, how about using it as a resting place around Kanagawa Station?
