2025 Nagasaki Prefecture Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

Nagasaki Day Tour As soon as you arrive in Nagasaki and see the tram, you will feel like you have been pulled back in time. The Nagasaki Tram, which opened in 1915, connects famous Nagasaki attractions such as Oura Catholic Church, Dejima, Shinchi Chinatown, Spectacles Bridge, Peace Park, etc. It is a way to experience the customs of Nagasaki and enjoy the slow time in Nagasaki. To get from Fukuoka to Nagasaki, you need to take the JR Relay Seagull to Takeo Onsen Station and then transfer to the JR Shinkansen Seagull. The section from Takeo Onsen to Nagasaki is called the Nishi Kyushu Shinkansen, which will not be opened until October 2022. It is a fresh experience, fast, smooth and quiet. #Peace Park

When I visited Nagasaki Fishing Port for the first time, I had to go out for a spin. This time I chose the mysterious Warship Island (Hatashima). After breakfast, we walked to the Nagasaki Port Pier, the hotel where we stayed, only about 5 minutes walk from the pier, looking forward to it. 🤩 Arrive at the pier and walk to the inquiry desk. Since you have registered your ticket online beforehand, you only need to verify your name and cash payment and finally board the boat😌. After about 30 minutes of boat ride, we arrived at Warship Island. There are tour guides in different languages, starting to take us around the island, note: Warship Island is only partially open, so to follow the guide obediently, do not wander around ah 😅. Returning to the ship after the tour, the ship will circle around the warship island, you can see the deserted scenery behind the island, warship island is always full of mysterious feeling 😅. It is a must-visit place in Nagasaki! #OverseasTravel

#summervacay My 5-day North Kyushu trip left me with a clear favorite: Nagasaki! Mojiko came in second, while Beppu and Yufuin, honestly, were mostly just for the novelty of their "diet" products. Nagasaki is truly a special place. It's a city that carries profound history, yet it's also rich in culture and boasts beautiful scenery. The pedestrian streets near Meganebashi (Spectacles Bridge) were wonderfully uncrowded and offered great prices. I found a mochi shop there with an incredibly delicious strawberry daifuku for just ¥200 – it literally burst in my mouth! Glover Garden was also stunning, and the ¥600 entrance fee felt like a steal, especially with elevators making it easy to explore the expansive grounds. If I ever get another chance, I would absolutely love to spend three full days in Nagasaki! There's so much to explore and absorb. #Nagasaki #NorthKyushu #JapanTravel #History #Culture #ScenicViews #Meganebashi #GloverGarden #TravelJapan

#summervacay Since I was staying near Nagasaki Station, I decided to walk to Oura Cathedral. It looked like only about a 30-minute stroll, and better yet, I could follow the coastline and take in the sea views. Plus, it was an overcast day, so no worries about the sun beating down on the beach – perfect for a city walk! Stop 1: Port Promenade & Giant Yellow Sphere As I made my way to the coast, my first stop was the Port Promenade (港の散步道). I followed the path until I reached the giant yellow sphere sculpture. From there, I climbed up a few sets of stairs to get to a higher vantage point. The view was incredibly open, giving me a fantastic panoramic look over the harbor – definitely worth the climb! Stop 2: Coastal Eateries Next, I passed by a row of charming restaurants and bars right by the sea. Eating or grabbing a drink with that ocean view would be a great option. However, it wasn't mealtime when I passed by, and I was just starting my walk, so I wasn't quite ready for a break. Stop 3: Nagasaki Prefectural Art Museum My third stop brought me to the Nagasaki Prefectural Art Museum. The museum's architecture itself is really distinctive, which I loved. I found I could even go up to the roof for some more great views – the perspective was excellent. I wasn't particularly interested in the current exhibitions, and since I only had half a day to explore Nagasaki, I decided not to go inside. This city walk was a fantastic way to get a feel for Nagasaki's coastal beauty and explore some cool spots at my own pace! #Nagasaki #CityWalk #SoloTravel #NagasakiPort #NagasakiArtMuseum #CoastalViews #JapanTravel #OffTheBeatenPath
