Museum with photos, clippings & artifacts documenting the atomic bombing of Nagasaki in 1945.

👍👍 First time seeing a public library with a Starbucks inside it! The space does not look like any public library I've ever seen as it had the feels of a really large bookstore, which might be the case because I think they partnered with a well-known bookstore chain in Japan to develop their public spa...

👍👍 開館から閉館までお弁当持って連日居座っても足りません。できることならここに住み込んでしまいたい博物館です。開館から６時間滞在しましたが、夜の道に慣れてないので泣く泣く後にしました。 イベントスペースには色んなビンテージスピーカーがあり、スピーカーによって私の凡人耳でも判るくらい音に違いがあってすごく...

👍👍 下五島の中でも超有名な教会堂です。現在は資料館として使われていますが、禁教期からの歴史資料がたくさん展示されています。禁教期の信仰の仕方など興味深いです。赤レンガと瓦の組み合わせが素敵です。五島の島陰とともに風景を楽しめます。 なお、久賀島行きのフェリーからこの美しい教会堂を見ることができます。
