Anyone who loves exploring unseen documentary and historical things must not miss this musuem. I was there read and listenned to every single thing they were presenting. It was tragic and the best case study for our recent world to be aware of Nucler bomb implementation

I believe this is a must-see in Nagasaki. I realize that I appreciated Nagasaki more after seeing and learning their history, specifically after the atomic bombing. Adult ticket price is 200yen. You can ride the tram from Nagasaki station if you are commuting. Fare is 140yen.

This is the place where you could actually learn more about what happened during World War 2. You could buy the ticket by the entrance downstairs. The museum displays the clothes of the soldiers, the facial replica and portraits of the survivors, the detailed structure of the bomb, as well as the replica of Nagasaki after the bombing. They also have some short clips to watch while touring around. So if ever you are planning on visiting Japan, then I suggest going to shrines and museums.

This is an absolute gem of a place to visit. The exhibits are well thought and explained clearly. Without describing spoilers, I want to share that some brought tears to my eyes. A great educational destination.

The museum itself has a beautiful facade and architecture. The design itself makes very good use of natural light. But hidden in it are horrific stories of the aftermath of the atomic bomb. The horrors of war do ring as true today as it does in the past. Wouldn’t post too much of the exhibition but hope anyone who has the time and is in the area will spend an hour or 2 in the exhibition. Fun fact, didn’t know Nagasaki had such a rich Christian history!
