Very moving memorial museum. Cranes have become a symbol of peace and there are lots of paper cranes around. Inside the museum, you'll learn details of the atomic bombing and the effects of the residents of Japan.
This is a very important museum that everyone should visit. It's across two levels and costs only a couple of dollars to visit. The museum largely explores the effects of the atomic blast on Nagasaki and the surrounding area. Towards the end it also explores the history of nuclear development, weapons, energy, and radiation. You'll certain to learn a lot here. There's a small gift shop and restrooms on every level. Staff speaks English and accepts credit cards.
Likely to be part of most visitors itineraries, the museum is great value at ¥200. The layout and exhibits have been executed well, and offers a somber look at the before, during and after phases of the bombing in 1945. Perhaps not as moving as Hiroshima, it’s a worthy experience which will absorb less than an hour of your time. Tickets via vending machine in multiple languages. Be sure to have a look at the adjacent Memorial Hall (free of charge) and surrounding landmarks which set the theme for this area of Nagasaki.
A well designed testament to the horrid destruction that atomic bombs are capable of, a weapon that should probably never have been developed and true crime against humanity.
Exhibition features many objects, videos, testaments, photos wrapped together in a good storyline in multiple languages. Haunting to see and learn about what happened.
