Nagasaki is Japan's port city — the bomb's other memorial, a hillside of churches, and a trading history with the world.

Nagasaki is a hilly port with a layered history — Japan's window to the world for centuries, with Dutch, Chinese, and Christian quarters, and the second atomic bomb's memorial. See the Peace Park, Glover Garden, and the chinatown; it's a quieter, more contemplative Japan than Tokyo or Kyoto.
