The Yokohama Yamate district used to be a thriving foreign settlement for Europeans and Americans living in Japan, leading to a unique atmosphere in its residential areas.
After Yokohama Port opened, more than 2000 business people from Europe and America flooded in and started to live and work here. They were given official permission to find living and working space by the Japanese government. However, they were prohibited from going outside of a very strict set of physical boundaries established by the government.
