Travel Cheap to Nagasaki, Japan from Seoul

Nagasaki is the capital of Nagasaki prefecture on the island of Kyushu, Japan. Under the national isolation policy of the Tokugawa shogunate, Nagasaki harbor was the only harbor to which entry of foreign ships was permitted. Even today, Nagasaki shows the influence of many cultures such as Dutch, Portuguese, and Chinese. On 9 August 1945, three days after the bombing of Hiroshima, a nuclear bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, killing a total of over 100,000 people. Six days later Japan surrendered, officially ending World War II.

From Fukuoka to Nagasaki:

Bus: Highway buses from Hakata station and the Fukuoka airport international terminal are the most economical way to reach Nagasaki from Fukuoka, costing about ¥2,500 each way and taking about 2.5 hours. In Nagasaki, the buses arrive and depart from a small bus station across the road from the main train station. They depart about every 15 minutes during the day, though not all stop at the airport.

Train: JR Kyushu runs the Kamome Limited Express train service from Hakata station in Fukuoka / vice versa from Nagasaki train station once or twice every hour. The one-way ride takes about two hours and costs ¥4,330. However, if you are travelling to many places in Japan and intends to travel economically then i suggest you purchase JR PASS.

Getting around Nagasaki:

Trams ( romen densha or "chin-chin densha") connect most of Nagasaki; they run about every ten to fifteen minutes during the day. The most frequently used lines will be the red (3) and blue (1); the blue and red lines run on the same track from the northern end of Nagasaki as far as the Nagasaki train station, where they split. The blue line continues to the You-me Plaza shopping mall, and later the downtown shopping arcade. A one-way trip is ¥120 and you can get a transfer ticket (”noritsugi ken") to continue your trip, if it requires two streetcars. These tickets can only be acquired if you get off at the Tsuki Machi stop. You can save money if you're doing a lot of travel by purchasing a daily pass for the streetcars (¥500) which you can purchase at most major hotels.

Buses also run through much of Nagasaki, including places that aren't served by the streetcars.

It should be mentioned that the street cars stop running around 11 PM, and most bus service also has downtime at night. This can come as a rude awakening if you go out in Shianbashi, only to find that you have to stay until 6AM for the first running densha. For the adventurous, it takes about an hour to walk from Shianbashi to Sumiyoshi. This timeframe is heavily dependent on how fast you walk, and what kind of night out you experienced.

Lodging:

I recommend Casa Noda Hostel, NS bldg 6-1 Motofuna-machi, Nagasaki city, Nagasaki, 5 min from Nagasaki Station, tel. +81 80 4270 1418 . It is a very new and small hostel with only two dormitories, but they are creating more rooms now. If you come with more than four people you get a discount of 300 Yen. dorm room: 2300 Yen per person per night with breakfast. The owner is nice and gives very good tips about the local restaurants and temple area. Good English is spoken. Use the map on their website to find it.
