    In Nagasaki Peace Park there is a statue symbolizes the love of God and the mercy of Buddha, wishing for the spirit of the atomic bomb victims and eternal peace. It said that the right hand pointing to heaven, and the left hand shows "peace" (for the future of Nagasaki). The face is neither a god nor a Buddha but a lightly closed eyes and quietly praying over the religion over the relief of the souls of the war victims of 70,000 abundant war victims.

    Must visit place in Nagasaki! This is the one that transplanted and restored the six Meiji period Western-style buildings that were scattered around the city, with the old grabber houses, former ringer houses, and old ortho-houses of the designated national important cultural assets at the core. It is familiar to many people as a foreign tourist attraction, more than 1 million tourists a year I am visiting.
