Glover Garden Entry E-ticket＜Western-style architecture from the end of the Edo to Meiji period＞

Nagasaki opened its port to foreigners along with Yokohama, Kobe, Hakodate, and Niigata. The Nagasaki Foreign Settlement was established there. Glover Garden continues to record history there. Three nationally designated important cultural properties , including the mansion of Scottish merchant Thomas Blake Glover, and precious traditional buildings scattered throughout Nagasaki City have been relocated and restored here.

**What is Glover Garden?** In 1858 (Ansei 5), the Edo Shogunate signed treaties of amity and commerce with five countries: America, the Netherlands, Russia, the UK, and France. Foreign merchants with dreams of a new Japan arrived. The Dutch trading post in Dejima, which had been in operation for 218 years since 1641 (Kan'ei 1), closed its doors, and Nagasaki, which opened its port to foreigners under the treaty, was born as a "foreign settlement." Western-style buildings covered with Japanese-style roof tiles stand on the hills overlooking Nagasaki Port, and foreigners from around the world live their daily lives there. Glover Garden is located here. This area is home to the homes of foreigners from the foreign settlement period, including that of the adventurous merchant Thomas Blake Glover, and Western-style buildings scattered throughout Nagasaki City. You can feel the history of Nagasaki from the end of the Edo period to the Meiji period here. Enjoy a special time surrounded by the aroma of history and culture, with stone pavements, stone steps, and a panoramic view of Nagasaki Port. **【Opening Hours】** 08:00～18:00（Last Entry17:40） **【Nighttime opening schedule】** 2024/10/10（Thu）～12/31（Tue） 08:00～21:00（Last Entry 20:40）（※Except for 10/30, 10/31, 11/5 08:00～18:00） 2025/1/1（Wed）～2/28（Fri） 08:00～20:30（Last Entry 20:10） 2025/3/1（Sat）～3/31（Mon） 08:00～21:00（Last Entry 20:40）
