Photograph of Yokohama, looking across rooftops towards the harbour. The caption reads: 'General View of Yokohama, Looking towards the Harbour. The singular neatness of the Japanese in architectural matters is strongly illustrated by the clear sharp outlines of the buildings in this view, which gives a good idea of the general appearance of this thriving settlement. The word Yokohama signifies "Cross Shore," and the foreign concession is about 3 miles in circumference. The total population including natives is slightly above 20,000'.
