During the day, visit Mikasa Park (三笠公園) where the historic battleship Mikasa is moored, and enjoy a leisurely stroll along Dobita Street (どぶ板通り), the characteristic gateway town of the U.S. Navy base. In the afternoon, enjoy views of the naval harbor beyond the rose garden at Verny Park (ヴェルニー公園), and have an early dinner at restaurants in the Yokosuka Central shopping district before evening falls. When darkness arrives, approximately 10,000 fireworks paint the night sky above the naval port in this uniquely international and colorful one-day plan. Perfect for a family autumn outing, this itinerary combines the charm of strolling through a port town rich in the history of opening to the world with the spectacular grandeur of fireworks.
