Nagasaki

City Overview

In the Edo period, the island of Nagasaki was established as a window for overseas exchanges, and trade with the Netherlands and China was active. Its influence has taken root in a food culture that is a fusion of different cultures, such as Castella, Champon, and Takufuku cuisine. The prefecture is dotted with world cultural heritage sites, including the Oura Catholic Temple and the Glover Garden, and the Warship Island, which once flourished from coal mining. In addition, Huis Ten Bosch, a recreation of the Dutch cityscape, is a popular tourist destination. In addition, a peace park has been established as the site of the atomic bomb damage, which conveys the importance of peace. The shipbuilding industry has also developed and has become one of the major industries.
