Local knowledge for Nagasaki
Where to stay
Most budget hostels cluster around Nagasaki Station and the Hamanomachi shopping arcade, which puts you within a short tram ride of Shinchi Chinatown, Glover Garden, and the Urakami atomic bomb sites. Both areas work equally well as a base since the streetcar network ties everything together.
Getting around
- Buy the cheap streetcar day pass at Nagasaki Station. It covers the four regular tram lines and pays for itself after four rides, which is easy to hit if you cover Urakami and Glover Garden in the same day.
- Gunkanjima ferry tours (the abandoned coal island visible from the harbor) sell out on weekends and in summer. Book online the evening before, not the morning of.
- Champon and sara udon at lunch run a few hundred yen at most spots around Hamanomachi. The same dishes push noticeably more at dinner or inside the tourist-facing restaurants in Shinchi Chinatown.
When to go
Hostels are cheapest in early December through mid-January, outside the Lantern Festival window, and fill up fastest during the Nagasaki Lantern Festival (late January to mid-February), Golden Week (late April to early May), and Obon week in mid-August.
