Kanagawa Prefectural Government

This is the first prefectural government central office in Kanagawa to be designated as a registered tangible cultural property of Japan. Affectionately known as the “King tower”, the central government office features a dignified building that harmonizes Western architectural style with Japanese taste. It is possible to hold meetings in the third floor large conference hall, which adopts a formal Japanese architectural style. Also, from the rooftop observatory, you can enjoy liberating vistas of the Port of Yokohama, Minatomirai District and so on.
