We went to Hashima Island as part of our tour and it was something that I had researched and was so looking forward to seeing. The island had a brief appearance in the James Bond movie Skyfall. Weather wise our day was perfect actually quite hot, pleasant boat trip to and from which was great for our 45min trip to the island. The island is 15km from Nagaski and was once used for coal mining with its own hospital, school and shopping centre which is incredible considering its size, it was abandoned in 1974 and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You are able to get onto the island but only on the designated paths, as it wouldn't be safe to roam around on your own. I loved visiting this very interesting part of Japans history, it was fantastic. I hope my photos showed how interesting this place is.

Opened in 1992, this theme park is actually a recreation of a 17th-century Dutch village complete with authentic architecture, canals and historic sites. The park is compilation of hotels, attractions, shops, restaurants and live entertainment.
Huis Ten Bosch is a theme park in Kyushu Nagasaki, Sasebo City, which recreates the Netherlands by displaying life-sized copies of old Dutch buildings. This awesome place has many attractions, museums, shops, restaurants, and hotels. One of the biggest theme park in Japan for it's flower festival and spectacular illumination. There are many things to do in this place like strolling in the flower road, forest villa, art garden, adventure park, or shop at the World bazaar, check the harbor town, tower city, thriller city, and enjoy the rides of their attraction town. The selections are all great so it's hard to pick one that suits you. Overall we really enjoyed our vacation and definitely will come back to this place.

Unzen Jigoku (meaning “Unzen Hell”) is an area where hot spring water and sulfur gasses spout out of the earth. There is a path that visitors can walk along to see these bubbling springs of steaming-hot water and enjoy the sounds of the steam erupting out of the ground. Plants common to hot spring areas can also be observed en route. Located in the middle of a hot spring town, there is plenty of accommodation and shops nearby. Many day trippers also make use of the public baths to refresh and recuperate. The hot spring water here contains sulfur, which is good for the skin and helps to remove fatigue.
Unzen Jigoku is located within the Unzen Town district and is designated as a National Park. It is where you will find many wild birds and alpine plants as well as other attractive features such as frost in winter (January to February) crimson foliage in autumn (October and November) cherry blossoms in Spring (March and April) and Azaleas in summer (May and June). The Unzen Hot Spring is located at the foot of Mt. Unzen. As a result of the nearby Volcano (Mount Fugen) it provides more than enough hot water for the many resorts an hotels in the region and support a wasteland of heat and steam. This is the place where high-temperature hot springs and steams spurt out of the ground and is called "Unzen Jigoku” (Unzen Hell) because of the sulfur content and the fact that sulfur steam is rising constantly into the air from the ground and the boiling spring water. Because of the sulfur, plants cannot grow here and the atmosphere is dense with steam which makes you think as if it is a scene right out of hell but don't worry within minutes of leaving the area the sulfur smell will have dissipated from your clothes and your pores. One can walk around the area within a reasonable amount of time (approx 30 to 40 mins), take a multitude of photos of plant and bird life around the hells area and also enjoy sulfur infused boiled eggs cooked within minutes right in front of your eyes. These eggs taste amazing and combined with just the right amount of salt for added tasting pleasure they are out of this world and will be absolutely the best boiled eggs you will ever taste in your life! This area can get many different reactions, those of immense wonder to those of utter disgust for the potent smells of the sulfur. Travel for adventure and to try something new I say!
