🌸Photographing Hydrangeas and Gourmet Food at Mikasa Park in Yokosuka

🌸Photographing Hydrangeas and Enjoying a Gourmet Stroll at Yokosuka's Mikasa Park

Mikasa Park, a representative tourist spot in Yokosuka City, is known for its display of the battleship Mikasa. However, in early summer, hydrangeas also bloom beautifully, making it a great place for photography.

📷 Hydrangea Photography Spots and Tips
• Composing the Battleship Mikasa and Hydrangeas
Placing hydrangeas in the foreground with a historic ship in the background creates a unique Yokosuka photo. The key is to shoot from a low angle, making the flowers the focal point while residing the ship in the background.
• Flower Beds Around the Fountain Square
A close-up of hydrangeas against the expansive fountain creates a mystical atmosphere, with the water spray reflecting the light. The flower colors appear softer on cloudy days than on sunny days.
• Utilizing Close-Ups and Circular Bokeh
Close-ups of the petal details and a large blur of the harbor and greenery in the background enhance the lush atmosphere.

🛍️ Yokosuka Port Market

After enjoying your photo shoot, head to Yokosuka Port Market, which is within walking distance.
You can enjoy fresh local seafood, prepared dishes made with Miura vegetables, and Yokosuka's signature Yokosuka Navy Burger. We also recommend ordering takeout and enjoying it by the water.

☕ Take a Break at Pronto Yokosuka Chuo

PRONTO, located near Keikyu Yokosuka Chuo Station, is the perfect place to take a break between sightseeing and strolling. Open as a cafe during the day and a bar at night, it offers a selection of snacks and sweets.

It's also a convenient place to spend time organizing photos and posting them on social media.
