    Nagasaki Pref. Minamishimabarashi Kuchinotsuchou Hei 4134-71
    This port is located in Kuchinotsu-cho, Minamishimabara City. After opening as a trading port in 1562 and prospering as the base of European trade and Christian missionary activities, it was used as a port to reload coal from the Miike coal mine during the Meiji period (1868-1912). The Marine Festa in Kuchinotsu is held every July, and there are various events such as fireworks displays.

    天草と島原を30分で繋ぐ島鉄フェリーの島原側の港です。半年前にターミナルビルができたばかりということもあり、同じ日に乗った三和フェリーの両港より賑やかな感じでした。有明海周辺を効率良く巡るには外せない旅の拠点と思います。

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.
