    Nagasaki Goto-shi Bukeyashiki 2-1-20
    This museum faces the Nizo Yamamoto Art Museum on the Samurai Mansion Street a five-minute drive from Fukue Port. The museum was built on the grounds of the Fukue Samurai House, a city-designated Historic Site. The museum displays photos of the Samurai Mansion Street. From a Japanese style room in the museum, visitors can also view a garden created in the same style as the National Place of Scenic Beauty-designated Ishida Castle Goto Garden. In a cafe space, visitors can eat famous Goto dishes such as Goto udon noodles and kankoro mochi. The museum also holds activity classes such as pounding mochi rice cake and decorating traditional baramon kites. In addition, the museum rents electrically assisted bicycles, making it a great place to check out before exploring the island.

    基本、案内施設のような感じだろう。中に入るとガイドの方が話しかけてはくれたが、メインとなるものはとくにない様子で、展示も少しだけあるがこれというものでもない。松園邸の案内があるのでそれを少し見る程度だろうか。

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.
