Family Trip to Nagasaki
My family and I departed to Nagasaki from Hakata Station by JR. It took about 2 hours to reach Nagasaki JR station. Once we arrived, we bought the one day pass for city tram, which cost about 500 yen per person and children under 3 years old are free.
Then, we took the tram to Chisun Grand Nagasaki hotel in order to leave our luggages in hotel before going to any tourist spots. The hotel located just 2 stations after Nagasaki Ekimae tram station. The hotel staffs were very friendly to us. After resting for a while, we decided to find for food.
We went to Dejima tram station to check on any restaurants, and we saw Chanpon (noodles soup with variety of ingredient in it) near the port. Nagasaki is famous with Chanpon, we decided to try it. We also went to Hamanmachi and to try the special rice with chawanmushi. After done with our late lunch, we took the tram and visited Nagasaki Peace Park. The park just near to Matsuyamamachi tram station. When I reached the entrance of the park, I was so glad that there was escalator next to staircases. I came with my mum so it would be easier for her to enter the park by escalator and not walked through the long way of staircases.
