Clover Garden, Nagasaki’s most beloved attraction, sits atop a picturesque hill. Visitors often take the convenient escalator to reach the summit, then enjoy a leisurely stroll downwards, exploring the garden’s delights as they descend.

Perched at Glover Garden’s scenic vista, the Former Mitsubishi No. 2 Dock House was built in 1896 as a dormitory for foreign crew. Its second floor offers a stunning panoramic view of Nagasaki Port.

Nagasaki Port is a constant hub of activity, with cruise ships arriving daily. On the day of our visit, the magnificent Diamond Princess was docked, and we saw many of its passengers exploring the beauty of Clover Garden.
