Atomic bomb hypocenter park

Passing point of Peace Park. You can watch the site of the cathedral wall which was victimized. Entrance fees are free.

Peace Park

Nagasaki Peace Park commemorates the 1945 atomic bombing, symbolizing hope and resilience. The park features the iconic Peace Statue, a solemn reminder of the past and a wish for a peaceful future. Nearby, the Fountain of Peace honors victims, while tranquil pathways invite reflection on history and harmony.

One Leg Shrine Gate

The One-Legged Torii is a powerful symbol of resilience in Nagasaki. Originally part of Sanno Shrine, one pillar was destroyed by the 1945 atomic bomb, leaving the other standing.

Reviews

A Perfect Tour

Katsu-San (Winner!) planned out tour to Shimabara and Unzen with two days notice and did extra research to ensure we had the most meaningful and personalized trip possible. He was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and went out of his way to make sure we were enjoying each part of the tour. He was also very flexible when we asked for something not on the itinerary. There is no better way to explore an unknown area of Japan. Katsu-San took care of everything so we could completely relax and enjoy our time with no stress and no complicated decision making.

Isao S.

Katsu N.

Dear Isao and family, Thank you so much for your heartfelt review. I’m truly honored by your kind words. I hope your memories of quiet gardens, samurai stories, and volcanic steam stay with you for a long time. And whenever you return to Kyushu, I’ll be more than happy to welcome you back. Warmest regards, Katsuhisa Your private guide in Kyushu
