Nagasaki Peace Park
The Nagasaki Peace Park (平和公園, Heiwa Kōen) is a tranquil space that commemorates the atomic bombing of Nagasaki on August 9, 1945, which destroyed a significant portion of the city and killed tens of thousands of inhabitants. The complex is comprised of two parks and a memorial museum. In the center of the complex is the Hypocenter Park with a simple, black monolith that marks the explosion's epicenter. Not far from it stands a damaged pillar of the former Urakami Cathedral which was destroyed in the blast. Furthermore, there is an area that allows visitors to take a look at a layer of soil below the park's surface where broken roof tiles, bricks and pieces of glass remain from the explosion.
Inasayama Observation Deck
Mount Inasa (稲佐山, Inasayama) is a 333 meter high mountain close to Nagasaki's city center. The summit can be reached by ropeway, bus or car and offers great views over the city. In fact, the night views from Mount Inasa are ranked among Japan's three best night views besides the views from Mount Hakodate and Mount Rokko. Several television and radio antennas and an observation deck with restaurant are located at the summit.

Our guide Yoshiko Hattori is an excellent Nagasaki guide! She is a local, well versed in the area history and navigates around the city with ease. She is fluent in English and fun to be with. She took us to Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum, Peace Park, Ground Zero, the Nagasaki Ropeway, the Fuchi Shrine and the Spectacles Bridge. She also suggested an excellent reasonably priced sushi restaurant for lunch. We had a great day with her! Thanks Yoshi!

We spent the day with Rikako while in Nagasaki. She did a wonderful job picking us up at the port, securing 2 taxis, and showing us Peace Park, Atomic Bomb Museum, and ground zero. She even shared personal family stories. Then we moved on to other sites we were wanting to see. She even helped my son find a Pokémon manhole cover. She was a wonderful tour guide who shared her love for her city.

Our guide Yoshi was waiting for us when we exited the port terminal. She arranged our itinerary so that we could the peak tourist time in the popular attraction. The time we spent in Nagaski was enjoyable. We learnt about the history and culture of Nagaski. We are pleased to have Yoshi for our tour in Nagaski.

We had a pleasant day with Hiro-san. We visited Nagasaki Peace Park and Atomic Bomb Museum (intense), Mt Inasa Observatory for a beautiful view over Nagasaki (recommended) and finally Glover Garden. We were lucky with the weather: sunny. Hiro-San was very helpful in guiding us in tram, bus cable car (problems paying) and restaurant. Also explanation of what we encountered along the way, eg Dejima, old trading post of the Dutch.

Yoshi-san was so amazing! She was very flexible and had great spots to visit in the city that were not very touristy areas. When we visited the shrines she was very understanding of our questions and gave us great insight with her answers.

A native of Nagasaki, our guide Yoshi shared a wealth of knowledge about the city, the people, and the historical events that shaped both. We thoroughly enjoyed our day and would recommend her unreservedly.

This was a private tour provided by the Japan Guide Agency. Our tour guide was Hiromi, who was excellent in both knowledge and English. She took us to the less visited parts of Nagasaki. Learning the long history of Western cultures integration here in Nagasaki resulted in elevating the city to one of our "must see" recommendations to our friends when they visit Japan.
