		It might seem strange to come all this way to look at nineteenth-century European-style buildings, but the upmarket suburb of Yamate is one of the city's highlights, an area of handsome residences, church spires and bijou teashops.
		Yamate's "exotic" attractions still draw Japanese tourists in large numbers, as do the vibrant alleys and speciality restaurants of nearby Chinatown.
		For a more evocative atmosphere, climb up to Yamate (also known as "the Bluff"), a genteel residential area of clapboard houses, tennis clubs and church spires on the southern hills.
