One of the constituent assets of the World Cultural Heritage \"Hidden Christian Related Heritage of Nagasaki and the Amakusa Region\". The island of Aikigashima is an islet with a circumference of about 8km in the northern five-island islands called \"Kamigoshima\". It is a continuous topography of steep sea cliffs, and is connected to Nakadori Island by the Pashigashima \u014cbashi bridge over Harami Seto, where the tide is intense. In the late Edo period, settlers migrated from the outer sea area of the Omura Domain, forming settlements in Shirahama, Tajiri, and Hamadomari. The pioneer people who were lurking Christians secretly maintained their faith while posing as Buddhists, on the island of Suigashima, which is inaccessible to people.

The settlement landscape, such as a fence and a quarry using the masonry technology of the open sea, has also been selected as a national important cultural landscape, \"Goshima stone settlement landscape in Sakiura, Shinkami-Goshima-machi\".<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":83162,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"categories":[75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-149856","travelpost","type-travelpost","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-spot"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/149856","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/travelpost"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/149856\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/83162"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149856"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149856"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149856"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
