Walking tour of Nagasaki – Dejima, trading post for westerners
Grab a coffee and enjoy this walk in Nagasaki.
This is a historical site in Nagasaki. Dejima (Japanese: 出島; lit. ’exit island’) or Deshima in the 17th century also called Tsukishima (築島; lit. ’built island’), was an artificial island off Nagasaki, Japan, that served as a trading post for the Portuguese (1570–1639) and subsequently the Dutch (1641–1858). For 220 years, it was the central conduit for foreign trade and cultural exchange with Japan during the isolationist Edo period (1600–1869), and the only Japanese territory open to Westerners.[
It was recorded in the afternoon in May 2025.
