The ultimate residential area with endless stairs/Walk around the residential area near heaven Western Shioiri Town, Yokosuka (Kanagawa Prefecture)
This is the third installment of the Yokosuka version of Walking in a Residential Area in Heaven. Yokosuka is characterized by Yato landforms. Yato is a valley topography formed by erosion of hilly land, and is a word called in Kanagawa Prefecture. In Chiba Prefecture, it is called Yatsu, and in the Tohoku region, it is called Yachi. I think that Yokosuka's Yato topography is characterized by narrow valleys, steep slopes, and narrow valleys and ridges. The residential area on the slope is thought to have been developed during the period of high economic growth after the war, and compared to Yokohama, which was fully developed, there are still forests left, and there is a strong sense of coexistence with nature. Impression. On the other hand, the road to the top of the hill is not well maintained, and the valleys are connected by disaster prevention tunnels.
The area we walked this time was a residential area on a cliff that rises like a folding screen behind the city along the coast from Yokosuka Chuo Station to Dobuita Street. It is a walk up and down the hills and valleys of Shioiri-cho 2/3-chome, Midorigaoka, and Uemachi 1-chome. One area that left a deep impression on me was Shioiri-cho 3-chome, a residential area on a slope where cars could not enter from the bottom to the top, and all access was possible only by walking stairs. In terms of scale, Nagasaki was naturally the winner, but I felt that it was not defeated in a strong impression. Yokosuka is formidable.
