Off the main street across from Yokosuka station is an entertainment district known as Wakamatsu Market that has retained much of the good old Showa flair. Now and again, Daido Moriyama ends up there quite frequently, which of course leads to walking the streets with his trusty camera at the ready. Yet it feels different nowadays, and quite a lot has changed since he first roamed the area some 60 years ago. He reminisces about unique nightly scenes of ladies swaggering through the dusky streets with American soldiers, the atmosphere and smells along the old shopping street_ Yokosuka may have changed with time and generations, but it still holds something special today.
