We were given a very interesting tour of the ship by a retired Captain of the Japanese Navy. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history surrounding the Mikasa and its exploits.

If you like naval or war history or just like looking at boats this is well worth the effort. Easily accessible by train from Shinagawa station. Yokosuka is a nice clean port area, plenty to see. You can do a habour cruise. The pre dreadnought...More
