Title: What's a Private Nagasaki Walking Tour Like? A Licensed Guide's Report

The guests, visiting from Asia, appeared to be enjoying the tour. At Peace Park, they attentively viewed the Fountain of Peace, the Peace Statue, and the memorial monuments donated by various countries. They also listened with great interest to the history of Urakami Cathedral, which is visible from Peace Park. At the Hypocenter Park, they listened attentively to how the hypocenter was identified and to the number of victims. At the Atomic Bomb Museum, they carefully observed the exhibits depicting the extent of the damage. At Meganebashi (Spectacles Bridge), they viewed with interest the reflection of the bridge on the surface of the Nakashima River. For lunch, I had originally planned Chinese cuisine in Chinatown, but since there was a request for Japanese food, I guided the guests to a wagyu beef restaurant also located in Chinatown. At Glover Garden, they listened with interest to the role Glover played in Japan's modernization. The tour concluded at Oura Cathedral, located at the exit of Glover Garden. As the guests wished to attend a service at Oura Cathedral, I explained how to return to the hotel and we parted ways.
