Traffic access

Please take the Nagasaki electric tramway Hotaru Chaya line and drop off at the “Shin-daiku-machi新大工町” electric stop.From there, we climbed the stairs to the hill and about 15 minutes on foot.


It is recommended if you do not want to climb the long stairs.It will take you to the vicinity of the shrine, bypassing the direction of the Hotaru Chaya.


Get off at the Nagasaki bus “shin-daiku-machi新大工町” bus stop, then climb the stairs and walk about 15 minutes.


There is no parking lot nearby, so please use the coin parking area around Shin-daiku-machi. We recommend the use of public transportation because it is especially crowded at the time of the event.
