Beautiful lights, got here at 8:45 just in time to enjoy it by ourselves before they close at 9. Came back the next day too. Smells soooo good. Just wish it was a little larger! But other than that it was enjoyable.

Went here just to see the lantern festival which is held during the lunar new year. There were so many people on that day so it's difficult to go around and enter the shops. To go here, you can take the tram to and from Nagasaki station at ¥140.

The Chinatown in Nagasaki is really small and nothing to write home about. There are around a dozen Chinese restaurants and a couple of provision/souvenir shops along two narrow pedestrian streets. A leisurely stroll from the North Gate to the South Gate takes only 2 minutes.

Not impressed. It's a small Chinatown and all the stores have the same products, all the restaurants sell the same below average cuisine. It was nice to walkthrough but there are much more interesting things to do in Nagasaki. If you're in the area, it's not bad, but otherwise I would just not bother.

There were a number of grocery shops and restaurants along the few blocks of Chinatown. Most restaurants were open @ 11am for lunch then @ 5pm for dinner. So, you have very limited eating places in the middle of the day. We ended up having a great late lunch at a Japanese restaurant on the main street going toward the Chinatown train station.
