What other travelers are saying about Nagasaki Peace Park (Heiwa Koen)
Beautiful, touching, well maintained and in my opinion a must visit when in Nagasaki.
Easiest way to get here is via tram. Just a warning when getting there it is uphill so keep that in mind. The park is an easy 5 mins walk to the museum, so I did both on the same day and was a great way to spend half a day.
I came around 12 noon on a weekday and it wasn’t crowded at all. It’s great to see that the park is still improving and adding new additions.
Peace Park Nagasaki
平和公園 there's a very beautiful park with very beautiful views.
It is amazing that this park is here and you have all the countries in the world that put a monument here to help reflect on and remember what war can do to countries. It is nice that we can all come together and remember the past and hopefully we can never let this repeat itself.
It is a very beautiful stop and a must-see when you are in the area
A very beautiful park in the center of Nagasaki that symbolizes its resiliency and perseverance after the atomic bombing.
This is a national historical landmark in Nagasaki that I hope other generations will be able to visit in the future.
Such an emotional visit. I really enjoyed it. The statue is incredible, and the many pieces of art offered to Nagasaki from all over the world and displayed at the park are heartwarming.
A solemn place to reflect upon the devastation of the atomic bomb disaster on 9 August 1945. There are many interesting memorials donated by various cities and countries around the world to adorn the park. A ten minute walk away is the hypercenter of the bomb which is also interesting.
