Overview

What separates Nagasaki from all other Japanese cities, is its acceptance of western culture during the hundreds of years of Japanese isolation. On this tour you will take a walk through history and learn how if it wasn't for this city, Japan would be a totally different place in the current day.

Activity itinerary

Dejima
  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
Experience life 400 years ago on Dejima Island, a restoration of the original island meant as a place for foreign merchants and workers to live during the isolation period. Although artificially landlocked now, the island paints a picture of what life was like for the first western foreigners to live in Japan
Nagasaki Seaside Park
  • 30m
From Dejima, we will walk by Nagasaki's port to the Seaside Park, a beautiful and sprawling public space with an incredible video of the ocean.
Oura Catholic Church
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Built by French Missionaries in 1864, The Oura Catholic Church is the only western style building recognised as a UNESCO world heritage site in Japan. Shortly after the churches construction, a small group of japanese christians showed up at the church, later revealing that tens of thousands of christians had been living in hiding until this point for fear of exucution. This moment was deemed a miracle by the presiding Pope, and a depiction of this moment is memorialised on the site
Glover Garden
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Thomas Blake Glover, an enourmously influential figure of the Meiji Restoration, has this garden built around his home at the top of the Dutch Slope. Here, many other important western figures also built homes, all with their signature western architecture. Learning more about these men and their involvement with Japan will change the way you think about Japanese history.
