Photographer: Andrew Ruppenstein
Taken: April 18, 2009
Caption: Kanrin Maru Marker and Monument
Additional Description: Although the marker and monument commemorate the arrival of the Kanrin Maru in San Francisco, it is not where the ship would have docked. The monument location is high up on a bluff, with a direct view west out over the Pacific Ocean, whereas the ship sailed through the Golden Gate into San Francisco Bay and docked at the city's port facilities, several miles east of the marker location.
