#Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Nagasaki Peace Park is a park located in Nagasaki, Japan, commemorating the atomic bombing of the city during World War II. This is a nice park area that was quiet when I was there and I felt more like I was there than in Hiroshima.
It is important to get the feel there imagining the sorrow, pain, ... the bomb caused. It is vital to realize the ground level elevation and its reason.
A must visit location when in Nagasaki as the Nagasaki Bomb Epicenter sits in a lovely park adjacent to the main Peace Park and only a short distance to the Nagasaki Peace Park Museum.

Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum and Peace Memorial Hall.
During World War II, Nagasaki was also the target of an atomic bombing.
At the Peace Memorial Park, located right by the Atomic Bomb Museum tram station, you can visit statues and other memorials dedicated to the victims and wishing for peace.
Just a short walk from the park is the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum.
At the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum, you can learn about the horrors of the bombing through videos and other exhibits. There are also visually impactful displays such as a reconstruction of the side wall of the Urakami Cathedral, which was destroyed in the blast.
Additionally, there is a small observation deck-like spot where you can overlook the city.

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! overall this ok for me
