Nagasaki City is the seat of the prefectural office of Nagasaki Prefecture in Kyushu, Japan. It is also an important port city in western Japan with a developed shipbuilding industry. The jurisdiction is located in the Nagasaki Peninsula and the Nishisonogi Peninsula. The city center is surrounded by mountains on three sides. Therefore, many houses are built on the hillside, forming many stepped or sloped streets.
Nagasaki was hit by an atomic bomb during World War II and became the second and last city in the world to be attacked by nuclear weapons after Hiroshima.
Since Japan was the only international trading port in Europe during the Edo period, it had close exchanges with the Netherlands and China, so it was deeply influenced by the West, which made Nagasaki have many European-style buildings; in addition, because of In the early days, many missionaries came to Nagasaki with merchant ships, resulting in the fact that Nagasaki now has more Catholics. Also because of trade with China, many Chinese have lived here since the Edo period. The Nagasaki Shinchi Chinatown in its jurisdiction is one of the three major Chinatowns in Japan (the other two are Yokohama Chinatown and Kobe Nanking Town).

- Nagasaki Biological Park：This is a little ways outside of the city, but it is definitely worth an afternoon. This is perhaps the world's largest and best petting zoo, where one can feed and pet animals like capybara, flamingos, mara, and wallabies. From Nagasaki Station (Nagasaki駅), hop on the Ogushi (大串) bus line, and ride north until you reach Kamedake (亀岳). Follow the signs with the cute animals, and Biopark will be on the right approximately 500 meters down the road. To return , look for the Nagasaki Terminal (长崎ターミナル) buses, which usually run hourly until 9.
- Huis Ten Bosch: This is a Dutch-themed park located in nearby Sasebo, which one can access with the Kamome train line. For those who have already toured the Netherlands, there is probably not much of a draw, but if you are interested in the uncanny Japanese ability to faithfully reproduce the works of other countries (they even imported the bricks from the Netherlands), it is worth a visit. There is a free shuttle service available from Huis Ten Bosch to Nagasaki Bio Park.
