Nagasaki
Prefecture
lies
in
the
northwestern
part
of
Kyushu,
and
consists
of
five
peninsulas
and
many
islands.
With
the
sea
in
between,
it
stands
face-to-face
with
a
continent,
part
of
which
is
China,
and
the
Korean
Peninsula.
It
has
therefore
long
been
an
important
transportation
point
facing
the
continent.
Since
the
17th
century,
ports
for
trade
with
Portugal
and
Holland
were
established.
In
addition,
since
it
was
once
the
center
of
Christianity
propagation,
there
are
many
exotic,
historical
ruins
and
buildings
left
within
the
prefecture. |

Nagasaki
City,
which
is
the
heart
of
Nagasaki-hanto
Peninsula,
is a
port
city
that
developed
itself

of a
mountain,
while

Gulf.

date,
exudes
an
exotic
atmosphere. |
