The Yokohama Customs Inspection office and the main pier

横浜税関庁舎の楼上から眺めた大桟橋全景｡桟橋のたもとから左手に湾曲して伸びる石積みの岸壁は｢象の鼻｣で､開港当初のイギリス波止場の突堤の一つ｡その内側では､船舶の荷役をおこなう艀(はしけ)が溜まっている様子が見られる｡Panoramic view of the great pier from Yokohama Customs Building. The curved stone-walled quay stretching from the edge of the pier to the left was called the "Elephant Trunk" and was one of the protrusions of Igirisu Hatoba (British Wharf) built at the time of the port-opening
