Things to do in Nagasaki City

The port of Nagasaki in Japan is worth visiting! The blue sea and blue sky are so beautiful! There are many birds flying on the sea, the dynamic and static scenes are combined, and the cruise ship is smart and moves on the sea. I recommend everyone to visit!

Located on the Nakajima River in Nagasaki City, it was designed by Chinese monk Ru Ding in 1634. It is a double-arch stone bridge. At the time of its construction, it was the only stone arch bridge in Japan, except for the Tennyu Bridge in the Ryukyu Kingdom at that time. It is lined up with 20 ancient bridges nearby, less than 100 meters apart, forming the "Nagasaki Stone Bridge Group". It was listed as an important cultural property of Japan in 1960 and is one of the three most famous bridges in Japan.

The three most recognized night views in the world are Victoria Harbor in Hong Kong, Hakodate in Japan, and Naples in Italy. In Japan, a new world's three major night views were selected in 2012, among which Hakodate in Japan became Nagasaki. The characteristics of this new world's three major night views (Nagasaki): huge coverage area, dotted with stars, "it seems like the Milky Way falling from the sky". Transportation: Take bus No. 3 or No. 5 at Nagasaki Station to the cable car station and buy a cable car ticket. It is recommended to buy a round-trip ticket, 1250 yen. There is a 3-story observation deck on the top of the mountain, and a coffee hall on the 1st floor, which are basically full. There is a toilet on B1. The top floor is an outdoor observation deck.

I cycled there, about 15 mins from the station. There are many art installations as well as the huge memorial. While I was there there was a s pool group, otherwise a restful place to contemplate the horror of what happened.

Nagasaki Shinchi Chinatown is very small. It is not the kind of large area that everyone imagines, with the streets full of Chinese expatriates and Chinese stores. Maybe Chinatowns in Los Angeles or Bangkok have this feeling. Nagasaki is more like a Chinese-style food street and shopping street, not a very good tourist attraction.

Suwa Shrine is the largest shrine in Nagasaki, usually called Chinsei Taisha. Shrines are an integral part of Japanese culture, and almost every Japanese town has a shrine. Today, there happened to be an event at the shrine, and children aged three, five, and seven were brought by their parents to pray. The children in formal attire (kimono) were so cute!

This is a landscape with water and greenery. The facilities in this park are also quite interesting. There are many interesting natural ecosystems in the entire apartment. The climate in Nagasaki is also good, not too cold or too hot, and it is very suitable for living here.

At the end of the Peace Park, it was built to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the explosion. It shows that reality is a combination of God and Buddha, and various gestures pray for peace. It was designed by a Japanese designer. It was under renovation when I went there, and many people would offer a bouquet of flowers as a memorial when they came. Opposite the sculpture is the ruins of the explosion site, which makes people feel a little sad.

It is said that it was once the largest church in East Asia, but it was completely destroyed in the Nagasaki nuclear bombing. Today, it is a rebuilt church. Around the church, there are still some broken walls and ruins left by the nuclear bombing.

Going up a small slope on the mountain, you will see the Dutch Slope in front of you. At that time, there were some Westerners living here, so it was a gathering place for foreigners. The Japanese called them Dutch. There are some old Western buildings here, and there are many shops on the roadside where you can buy gifts and food. There is also a Living Water Women's University built here with beautiful scenery.
