The Charm of Nagasaki

Walk across the wet cobble stones of Nagasaki

<p>Like the streets of the Netherlands that are moist from the rain, the cobble stones reflect such a brilliant light.</p>

<p>The night panoramic view of Nagasaki from Mount Inasayama is one of Japan's best views.</p>

<p>My first glimpse at the view from one of the locals' recommended places, Izumo Park.</p>

<p>The well-known Oura Catholic Church stands out even in the distance as a silhouette that pierces the night sky.</p>

<p>After wandering the streets of Nagasaki, rest your tired body with some delicious shochu that goes down the hatch smoothly. </p>

<p>The smell of spring from this bento box is just wonderful! It's a great option for lunch.</p>

<p>A cup of tea rounds out the evening.</p>

<p>Lights from Mori Park. There's still a lot of other enchanting places to visit in Nagasaki, but for now, the city sleeps. </p>

On February 22 in 2015, my trip to the Nagasaki Lantern Festival came to an end. The next day I would be heading back to Osaka by plane.

For years I had been wanting to go to Nagasaki's Lantern Festival and I finally got my wish. Since I came to Nagasaki on business, I could not cover all the events held at the festival, but I was able to see all the places that I had planned to visit. The smell of the night's rain was wonderful. Although I was there only for a short amount of time, I enjoyed my stay as much as I could, that's how I consoled myself...as my list of things to do and places to see was never ending! Not getting enough Nagasaki, I plan to go back there again. Now, where shall I head off to next...
