Yokohama Art Galleries
(Yokohama, Kanto, Honshu, Japan, JP)



Yokohama is a great city for those with an interest in art. Various art galleries deserve a mention, such as the Yokohama Museum of Art, a rather interesting contemporary art museum exhibiting modern art works from both Europe and Japan, which have had a mutual influence on each other.
