Kanazawa Ward in Yokohama City is located in the eastern part of the Miura Peninsula, and was also an area that was heavily influenced by the Kamakura Shogunate. As a result, it is characterized by the many historical sites that remain, such as Shomyoji Temple and Kanazawa Bunko, which give a sense of history. The area is also home to the Kanazawa Industrial Zone, which was created by reclaiming land from the coast. Facilities such as Umi no Park and Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise were also built at the same time, and the area is bustling with tourists on weekends. As it is close to the sea, there are also plenty of facilities for enjoying marine sports. Due to the area's long history, there are also many shrines and temples. There are also many major supermarkets and restaurants, making daily shopping convenient.
