World Heritage Site: Japan was the only country in Asia able to replicate the Industrial Revolution in the late 19th century. Concerned by the encroachment of Western powers into Asia, the influential lord Shimadzu Nariakira began a modernisation project, called the Shuseikan, next to Sengan-en. This was the first modern factory complex in Japan, and led to the wider development of industrialisation across the country. Sengan-en and the Shoko Shuseikan Museum were inscribed as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site in 2015.
