Nagasaki Peace Memorial Hall for the Atomic Bomb Victims

Reviewed By Karenyong - Singapore, Singapore

This place is very serene, got lost a little in the underground while walking but every different corner presents the way how nagasaki has went thur after the bombing occurred. They shown it in different forms of 3D videos, pictures, portraits, artefacts, computer images and also paper cranes made by school kids to ensure World Peace. Was not expected to spend so much time here but when you walk thur all this and reading them, almost took me up an hour+. And yes, i agree that this place does more than what you feel like its a memorial hall for the victims. I felt more peace after walking through the memorial hall seeing so much.

Dejima

An artificial island to which Dutch workers were restricted during Japan's era of isolation, the area is now being restored and includes historical buildings, a museum and a miniature model of the former island.

Reviewed By deckchairtraveller - Sydney, Australia

Thus is the re-make of the original Dutch settlement on edge of the old Nagasaki harbour. Was a locally built island JUST for the Europeans, has been realistically restored. Excellent historic exhibits and rooms made to look like they originally were utilised (stores or living). At the far end of the street is a model of the island n' buildings and shows you just how small (n' compact) it all was then. Established in 1500's and lasted till mid 1800's and was the "sugar route" into the rest of Japan. Imports were sugar, tobacco and (early on) even silk from China.
