Message

Nagasaki has developed as a port town since 16th century. It is a special city of colorful history in which Japanese culture harmonized with overseas cultures. Also it was bombed and yet reborn with a great identity. Here is the best city to walk around to enjoy the harbor view, historical remains and exotic townscape. Why don’t you explore with me as I know every inch of this city!
