Nagasaki
7–8 days
Hidden Christian history on hills that demand slow walking
← Back to Japan Roots Journey
Why it's cool
Nagasaki layers tragedy, faith, and harbor trade — Oura Church, Glover Garden, islands if you want water.
George rhythm
Spiritual core of the trip — Japanese roots meet Christian history you care about. One guided Hidden Christian site; wander the rest.
Day shape
A realistic rhythm — not a locked schedule.
Morning
Tram to hillside church.
Afternoon
Long lunch in Chinatown or Shianbashi, one site deeply.
Evening
Harbor walk, optional onsen.
Fun at a discount
- Tram one-day pass covers most sights.
