    ハウステンボス旅行の初日に、奥さんの趣味の御朱印をもらいにこちらの福石観音にレンタカーで来ました。駐車場が見つからなく、別の狭い路地に見つけた一般の有料駐車場に止め、15分程歩いて行きました。到着して分かりましたが、道路から赤い鳥居をくぐった奥に専用駐車場があり、そこからだと歩いて0分でした(^_^;)。神社には誰もいない感じでしたが、1つ目の階段の手前か、登った左側に小さな小屋が有って、中にいた...

    印通寺港から車で数分でした。入場料を払うと最初から説明が始まり、見学エリアから外の銅像、福岡市電までずっと解説同伴でした。誰でも知っている企業がずらりとならび、晩年の写真には吉田茂、池田勇人とそうそうたる政治家との写真など圧倒されました。館内は写真撮影できませんでした。隣の生家は土間にははいれ内部の写真撮影ができました。

    Hara Castle was the site of the end of the Shimabara Rebellion. Naturally fortified by the surrounding Ariake Sea, the castle was once considered impregnable.

Countless human bones and crosses have been excavated here, attesting to the tragedy which occurred at the site.

Nagasaki Areas

around-area-map

This hidden corner of the country is rural Japan at its best, where underground activity is to thank for active volcanoes and bubbling natural hot springs along the Shimabara Peninsula as well as the crystal clear waters of the Goto Islands off the west coast. Less well known than Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park, Nagasaki commemorates its own past at the Nagasaki Peace Park, which sits alongside the charming Meganebashi stone bridge and a mix of religious buildings with beautiful architecture, such as the Zen Buddhist Sofukuji Temple, the Confucian Shrine, and the Oura Christian Church.
