we introduce a Nagasaki model itinerary for those who love scenic views.
Nagasaki is full of breathtakingly gorgeous sights you can enjoy, including beautiful retro architecture and views where islands meet the sea.

Saikai Bashi Bridge is where you can witness the rapids and whirlpools of the Hario Strait, counted as one of Japan’s three greatest tidal currents. It is popular as a stunning natural phenomenon. You can park at the nearby Saikai Bashi Brigde Park and walk along the promenade from there.
