Overview

This is a walking tour using public transport.
This tour offers insights into Nagasaki's unique history and culture, highlighting its past as a centre of trade during Japan's period of national isolation and its experience as a victim of World War II's atomic bombings. As the only country to have endured nuclear attacks, Japan's history is profoundly impacted by these events. Guided by a nationally licensed expert, this tour provides valuable insider knowledge and historical context. Stroll through a city where European and Japanese cultures blend, and reflect on historical scenes from that era. The itinerary includes a visit to a site related to wartime history.
If you will feel sick from the shocking images, it is possible to change the A-bomb museum to another itinerary.

Activity itinerary

Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Atomic Bomb Museum displays the changes in the cityscape before and after the bombing, as well as a number of items left behind after the bombing. Among other things, visitors can learn about what happened on that day in Nagasaki, Japan, through photographs and videos of people who witnessed the horrific scenes of the time. If you will feel sick from the shocking images, it is possible to change the A-bomb museum to another itinerary.
Urakami Cathedral
  • 1h
The beautiful brick church building with a statue of Mary and the sound of the Angelus bell, which withstood the atomic bomb blast. Visitors can see the painful scars of the atomic bombing up close in the majesty of the church.
Peace Memorial Statue
  • 1h
Peace Park, located on a small hill on the north side of the Atomic Bomb Dropping Centre Park, was created with a pledge never to repeat the tragic war and a wish for lasting world peace. The Peace Statue, which symbolises the wish for peace of the citizens of Nagasaki, symbolises the love of God and the mercy of Buddha, and is filled with prayers for the repose of the souls of the victims of the atomic bombing. If you look up at the sky above the nearby Atomic Bomb Drop Centre monument, you will see an unremarkable sky there.
Dejima
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Take a walk around Dejima, which played a major role in Japan's modernization as the only trading post open to the West during the country's period of national isolation. Today, Dejima has been restored to its former glory, and visitors can visit its main facilities.
Spectacles Bridge (Meganebashi)
  • 30m
One of the three most famous bridges in Japan, it is one of the oldest existing arched stone bridges and is designated as a National Important Cultural Property. When the water level is low, visitors can use the stairs to go down to the river edge and stroll along the water's edge. The heart stones on the Nakajima River seawall, including the Megane-bashi Bridge, are noted as a power spot for romance, so be sure to look for them when you visit.
Glover Garden
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Six Western-style buildings from the Meiji period, scattered throughout the city, have been relocated and restored. The former Glover Residence, the former Ringer Residence, and the former Alt Residence are designated as National Important Cultural Properties and serve as the main buildings. The stone pavement and stone steps, which retain the appearance of the settlement period, further enhance the scent of history and culture. The park is adorned with flowers, creating picturesque scenes for photography. Additionally, the park offers an excellent location with a panoramic view of Nagasaki Port against the backdrop of Mount Inasa, a landmark of Nagasaki City.
