Description

Glover Garden in Nagasaki showcases nine traditional buildings, including the Old Glover House, Old Alt House, and Old Ringer House, all standing for over 150 years. All designated as “National Important Cultural Properties,” the Glover House is also part of the "Industrial Revolutionary Heritage of Meiji Japan" UNESCO World Heritage Site. Six other buildings, reflecting the mid-Meiji period, were transported to Glover Garden and hold valuable insights into Nagasaki's history. What makes the scenery so unique is the contrast with the rest of historic Japan, which was closed to the outside world for centuries. With Glover Garden tickets, you can see how a rare enclave of Western culture turned out in a pivotal time in Japan’s past. Boasting a prime location overlooking the Port of Nagasaki with Mount Inasa as a scenic backdrop, Glover Garden captivated the great men and women of the port's early days. The romantic allure of the Western-style buildings is heightened when illuminated from mid-July to early October, offering a unique nighttime charm. Explore the park's cobblestone pavements and you may also discover the “heart stone” – legend has it that touching it and making a wish can make your love come true. For a touch of nostalgia, indulge in a casual photo shoot at the Retro Photo Studio, complete with outfit rentals. Don't forget to grab original Glover Garden goods at the on-site store.
