It was Hikawamaru that I visited first when I moved to Yokohama. It'll be sad to say goodbye.
It was decided that Marine Tower was bought by Yokohama City and would be reopened a couple of years later. What become of Hikawamaru?

Thank you, Hikawamaru and Marine Tower
Hikawamaru is an ocean liner that made its maiden voyage in 1930. Marine Tower is an observation tower having a beacon function. These two, being located at or near Yamashita Park, have been the symbol of Port Yokohama since 1961, 100th anniversary of port opening. But they were closed on December 25. In recent years the amusement area was moved to Minato Mirai 21 area and the number of visitors to these two places decreased.

氷川丸は、1930年に処女航海をした外航客船である。マリンタワーは灯台の機能を持つ展望塔である。この二つは、山下公園あるいはその近くにあって、開港100周年記念の1961年以来ずうっとみなと横浜のシンボルであった。しかし、12月25日に終業した。近年、娯楽地域はみなとみらい21地区に移り、この二つを訪れる人の数は減少した。
わたしが、横浜に引っ越して初めて訪れたのは氷川丸だった。別れるのは寂しいね。
マリンタワーは横浜市が買って、数年後に再び営業するすることが決まった。氷川丸はどうなる？
