Attractions and Features
An event celebrating the Chinese New Year held in Nagasaki Shinchi Chinatown, one of the three largest Chinese towns in Japan.This is the Nagasaki Lantern Festival.It is held every year from the end of January to February.
The northern limit of Nagasaki station is colored by lanterns in all parts of Nagasaki city, and the city center is lined with gourmet stalls such as Nagasaki Hatoshi, braised Manju, hemp flower (Maafar, called as YoriYori by Nagasaki citizen).Personally, these gourmet food is a must-buy.It is an item that I want to eat suddenly outside the lantern period.
The Chinese culture, western culture, and Japanese culture mingle in Nagasaki City, it is a masterpiece to be lit up fantastically in red light.Events such as the face show also liven up the non-daily feeling.
Famous tourist attractions are also reinvented to the Lantern specification.It is a valuable chance to shoot only this time.
In China, it is called “dao-fu” to decorate the character of “福” means fortune in the opposite direction like the Chinese town entrance lantern of the top picture.The pronunciation of the (DAO) is the same as coming, and the wish of the fortune to come is put.
Why don’t you try to cast yourself into a fantastic foreign culture in Nagasaki in the clear air of winter?
Traffic access
Transfer to the tram from JR Nagasaki Station and drop off at the “Shinchi Chinatown” electric Stop.Central Minato Park and Chinatown are within a 5-minute walk.
I do not recommend it very much because the congestion occurs during the lantern period.
I do not recommend it very much because the congestion occurs during the lantern period.The route bus “Nagasaki Shinchi Terminal” is a few minutes ‘ walk from Chinatown.
The use of the car is not recommended during the lantern period.The parking lot in the city center is almost full every year.In addition, traffic congestion is caused by the influence of road regulations.
