The thriving city of Nagasaki is cradled in the lush mountains of Japan’s Kyushu Island. An eight-hour bullet train from Tokyo this charmingly diverse city lies on the edge of a scenic channel of the Sumo Nada Sea. In a nation isolated from the outside world for generations, Nagasaki was a gateway through which knowledge and resources flowed to and from the rest of the globe. This historic harbour city is now a dynamic fusion of Japanese sophistication which co-exists and harmonizes with elements of overseas culture and faiths. Too much of the world, the name Nagasaki is bound to one of the most devastating events in modern history.
