Nagasaki Area

Nagasaki city is so beautiful a city.



This city has old-side and new-side.

Both of 'em are so attractive.

Nagasaki sta. side is the new side.
There are big shopping malls and a ferris wheel.
And its night-view is one of the three great night-views of Japan. The view from Mt.Inasa is so great.




And there are lots of spots for sightseeing.
This is Glasses-Bridge.





This is one of the three great China-Town of Japan.
Nagasaki has a deep relationship between China for many years.


Chinese style festivals are held in this town.













The lanterns are so great.


















Confucius mausoleum.
It was built in 1893.
There are cultual assets of China here.









There are European-style houses at the mountain side.







They makes me feel that I'm in foreign town.








There are old buildings concerning trade at the sea-side.
This is Hongkong-Shanghai bank.








This is Glover garden.
The Glover's house is the oldest European style building in Japan.







Glover is the man who contributed to making the base of the shipbuilding town , Nagasaki.





























And there are many churches in Nagasaki prefecture.
The Christianity has widely spread in Nagasaki.























This is Dejima wharf.
At the era of isolation, Japanese government permitted trading only in this Dejima wharf.








Dejima used to be an island, but it's a wharf now. Some buildings are restored.













We can feel the atmosphere of Edo era.










The port side is awesome.












Nagasaki is the city of port.
The function of the port is so fine.
Amusements like lighting up is also great.


Sometimes we can see very very big ships.













Urakami area in Nagasaki was destroyed with an atomic bomb by U.S army on August 9th, 1945.

Many people died by the atomic bomb which is much stronger than the one of Hiroshima but fortunatelly, less people died compared to Hiroshima because this area is enclosed by mountains.

This is the museum.
Nagasaki city became Hell on Earth.













We won't blame the States
but we never forget.
May Peace Be With Everyone.

  4. Hi,
    Those pictures are really awesome. It's very interesting about WW2 and do you know how Amrican students are educated about those two atomic attacks to Japan?

    How would they feel about it?
