Itinerary

  1. 1

    Nagasaki

    Experience Nagasaki through the eyes of someone who calls it home, a city shaped by resilience, international exchange, and layered traditions. This is a personalized City Unscripted experience thoughtfully designed around you. Before your experience begins, you will receive a short online questionnaire so we can tailor the day to your interests, pace, and curiosities.

Here are some highlights to inspire your experience:

  2. 2

    Nagasaki Peace Park

    Pass by

    Walk through this reflective park dedicated to peace and remembrance, where sculptures from around the world line tranquil pathways. Your host shares how the city rebuilt itself, offering local perspectives that connect its history with present-day Nagasaki and its enduring resilience.

  3. 3

    Sanno Shrine

    Pass by

    Continue to this hillside shrine, known for its one-legged torii gate that survived the atomic blast. Surrounded by towering camphor trees, this peaceful setting reflects spiritual continuity and the quiet strength woven into Nagasaki’s community.

  4. 4

    Spectacles Bridge (Meganebashi)

    Pass by

    Stroll toward this 17th-century stone bridge, one of Japan’s oldest, whose twin arches form the shape of spectacles in the river below. Set along a calm canal, it highlights early urban design and Nagasaki’s long-standing connection to trade and cultural exchange.

  5. 5

    Dejima

    Pass by

    Explore the former trading post that once linked Japan to the outside world during centuries of isolation. As you walk its historic layout, your host explains how Dutch merchants influenced local culture, cuisine, and Nagasaki’s uniquely global identity.
