Atagoyama (Uraga-en), the top of the flowers of Uraga

In middle of 1800's, the dawn of Japanese technology of building ships, Uraga Shipyard had produced the Western ship for sailing to U.S. So at Atagoyama, the monument of department Kanrinmaru had built. The old shogunate was going to inspire U.S.' culture to Japan with best shogunate Japanese one.

Made in Netherlands, like Kanrin-Maru. Tokugawa shogunate had bought the Kaiyo-Maru ship at the dealer of there by much money. The old Tokugawa shogunate had sailed with total 8 commanders like Kanrin-Maru ship to Hakodate, in old Hokkaido for the war against the new Japan government. However, the old shogunate had lost a way. HIJIKATA and ENOMOTO had been left in Esashi despite of offense beyond Hakodate, then Kanrin-Maru had been robbed by the new government and Kaiyo-Maru had been sunk by storm(currently, it has been lifted to reform as the museum). After all, also HIJIKATA and NAKAJIMA were martyred, in 1869, Goryokaku had been occupied by the new government and the every old Japanese prototype had lot.

It should be true that they were won the war, old Japanese prototype had changed to the alternative way at all...
