    Nagasaki Pref. Saseboshi
    This is the general name for the 208 islands in an area covering approximately 25 kilometers from outside Sasebo Port to Hirado. Although it has the highest island density in Japan, only four of them are inhabited, and most of the coastline is preserved as is. There is the Kujuku Island aquarium Umikirara that reproduces the sea of the Kujuku Islands, observation facilities and a cruise ship, and besides being able to come into contact with rich nature such as the complex topography of the rias coast and sea life, you can also enjoy seafood including Kujuku Island oysters and activities like sea kayaking.

    Nagasaki Sasebo-shi Ukumachi
    Located at the northernmost tip of the Goto Islands in Nagasaki Prefecture, the island is part of Sasebo City and can be reached by high-speed boat or ferry from Sasebo Port in about two hours.

    宇久平港ターミナルから徒歩5分、神島神社の裏手の高台にありました。中国風の紅色の山門をくぐり、建物の裏に周ると目標の平家一門のお墓がありました。

Nagasaki Areas

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.
