Place rating: 5
Yokohama, Japan

This is an awesome building, one of the oldest remaining «modern» buildings in Yokohama. Its distinctive tower, nicknamed «Jack,» can be seen from various parts of the area. (Look on the pavement for marks that show were you can see Jack, «King» [the prefectural capitol building”], and «Queen» [the customs office] from the same viewpoint.)
The fact that so few buildings of this vintage and style makes it cool to look at. The inside (free) is not all that special if you grew up in a western city with century-old (or centuries-old) public buildings, but go in anyway to see the cool stained glass on the second floor. Look for the windows that have a European gentleman on palankeen carried by men in fundoshi (loincloths) and the large window that shows an American ship (Perry’s «black ship,» as I recall) being met by Japanese. On special occasions you can climb the spiral stairs to the top of the tower.
