Japan travel guide

✅Nagasaki City is a city located in western Kyushu, Japan, and is an important port city in western Japan. 🔜📸Nagasaki is known as the "City of Paper Cranes" and also the "City of Dutch Culture" in the world, because it used to be a unique cultural exchange center! 🔜🔺The area of Nagasaki is 406.35 square kilometers, with a population of about 440,000. Nagasaki has a long history and rich cultural heritage, and was once Japan's window to the outside world. Therefore, various cultural elements can be seen in the city, including 🔺European architecture, 🔺Christian churches, and more. 🚏The Catholic churches in Nagasaki, such as the Our Lady of the Assumption Cathedral and the St. Francis Xavier Church, blend European and Japanese architectural styles, making them very unique. 🔜🔺Nagasaki opened its port in 1571 and is a port city full of exotic charm. 🔥During World War II, Nagasaki was bombed, but after the war, it quickly recovered its original urban appearance through comprehensive reconstruction, and paid attention to environmental protection and cultural heritage, becoming a city with both modernization and historical and cultural heritage. ✅🚏Nagasaki Port is a very beautiful port, and also a historic trading port. ✅🚏Mt. Inasa is one of the landmarks of Nagasaki City, offering a beautiful view of the entire city. 🔜🔺In addition, Nagasaki's characteristic cuisine is also very famous, such as Nagasaki cake, preserved egg, etc.

A cruise ship destination that first introduced me to Nagasaki. I truly enjoyed the museum and peace park. Public transportation was easy and inexpensive too.
