Hey guys! We took a step away from van life for a couple of days to explore Nagasaki and it easily became one of our favourite Japanese cities. Have you visited Nagasaki or Hiroshima before? If not, are they on your list of places to go?
N
both on my list of places to go. Was gonna go one time but covid said no.
Yes. Both. Nagasaki was great. I was given 1 request from a gal who was a little girl in 1945, when she comes to pick me up, don't mention about what I saw. Very quiet car ride home. I can't begin to imagine her experience before and after. Her daughter and I remain close. Its time to go back and introduce the city and the history now, to my daughter!
I'm going to be studying abroad in Nagasaki this fall 2022! Thanks for showing us how beautiful this city is!
Wow! We’re jealous haha. Hope you have a really great time 😃
Was in Navy at Sasebo. Went to visit Peace Park during Cherry Blossoms. Beautiful day with a lot of the locals there with blankets, binto boxes and Saki. Shared their food and drink with them. So gratuitous! Waiting for a cherry blossom to fall in my sake cup. It was a good luck sign! Never forgotten that day 50 years ago!!
That sounds like a beautiful experience! It must have been such a great atmosphere with everyone doing hanabi in the park 😊
It is an example for all the humankind,
Wars now will be 100×times worse
*Hope for Peace☮️*
Watching this as an American hits different
Feels great
@@jk23414 *no.*
@@jk23414 chud
Why? They wanted to do that to Americans. My grandfather was in the Navy and he was under assault in the Pacific. He was at the surrender in Tokyo Bay. Should have never felt froggy Dec 7 1941.
@@pmccoy8924 Human suffering can still feel bad even if it is for a purpose.
Everyone talks about hiroshima but not about nagasaki
Yeah it seems to be that Hiroshima is talked about more. Both cities are pretty incredible to visit though!
I think because it was the first city to get hit and there was more destruction and death there than in Nagaski even though "fat-man" was alot more powerful than "little boy" if i remember correctly the hills/mountains shielded some of the blast.
there’s no radiation?
Exactly 😂

As a 30 year old Aussie I still love sesame snaps
Haha they’re pretty good, hey!
It feels radioactive when you travel to Hiroshima and Nagasaki... Millions of people perished and dissapeared in 1945... It finally feels safe... After the heat... The radiation... Both of the cities are finally rebuilt... Hoping not having another atomic bomb dropping... like Tsar Bomba...
Love from America
Amazing video!!! Both street food you tried sounded soooo yummy😁
I should definitely try the onsen you told , do you know if I can get in there with my 9 years old boy? Because rarely my husband travels with us ... I never know the rules of the onsen actually !
This video was so touching , the history and the contemporary lives of Nagasaki people , I really enjoyed it!👏👏👏😍
Thank you for watching, we're so glad you enjoyed the video! 😊 After spending the first day in Nagasaki, we were so interested we thought "we have to make a video about it!"
Hmm that's a great question. I'm also not quite sure about the onsen etiquette! But from all the times we've been to onsen's, I've only ever seen younger children (maybe up to 5) in the opposite sex bath. This onsen also has family baths that you can hire for 60 minutes. It's more expensive and maybe the view isn't as good but it could be the best way to go.
@@RoyandAimee thank you for the tip! Have a safe travel , またねー！
Was there any mention or pictures at these memorials of the Asian Holocaust committed by the Japanese Imperial army starting from the Nanking massacre in 1930’s through to end of WW2. They were on par and at times worse than the Nazis. The Japanese seem to deny a lot of these war crimes and the atrocities of cruelty, rape and brutality beyond belief resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of civilians including women and children, military nurses, and prisoners of war during these times that ultimately led to the atomic bombs as the Japanese would not surrender. It’s sad the civilians of Nagasaki and Hiroshima had to pay the ultimate price for the acts of these monsters.
America dropped 2 bombs in Japan. Both planes were obviously undetected by the Japanese. Strange
Hello! I’m only 12 and I really want to learn Japanese! Do you mind telling me what books I need and do you also mind sending a video to help me out 😁😁, Please and thank you!!
That's great that you want to start learning Japanese! You could try apps like Learn Japanese or Human Japanese to start with the basics and to learn hiragana and katana. You could also have a look at the youtube channel JapanesePod101, which has a lot of good basic videos for learning Japanese. Good luck!
Best if you watch japanese anime
Nagasaki Prefecture is cringe, Saga prefecture is based.
I was there and put up two weeks just for a huge Late Fall Glowing Gingko Tree inside a temple near the Spectacle bridge. I even camped two nights near the Marina front and one of the koen. Two weeks Nagasaki made up the other rural end Mura Mura, Town First Cabin, Plus two home operated dorm.
Peaceful Americans
Thanks for the video. Very nice.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching 😊
Isnt there radiation there?
Good People the Japanese.
Such Nice place towards it had deep history
Love Japan from india
People should know how necessary dropping these bombs were, the emperor Hirohito was willing to throw every man woman and child at the Americans, hard to imagine and I know it sounds crazy but dropping them bombs was a far less cost of lives then allowing millions to die because of Hirohito's pride, I've got about 1000 hours of book reading on the subject from documentation and intelligence to renowned author's, trust me it was a gamble but it paid off because Japan surrendered.
Japan was already discussing about the surrender. Even though I don't believe that 100%, that's the reason there are people who question about the necessity of dropping A-bombs.
After all, Hirohito was just a puppet of the military government. Emperor said that he thought general Tojo was the only one who could stop the army from going further into the war, but he obviously didn't, or couldn't. He was surrounded by too many anti-american, pro-war group in the military.
Emperor Hirohito's crime was that he didn't do anything to stop the war, not to start the war.
Sound familiar doesn't it? It happens everywhere and everyday. People stepping into politics and police force with all the good intentions and getting corrupted after few years.
You'd be working in a company or a shop, talking to your management to change something but nothing gets done, until something drastic happens.
Sure, a-bombs were dropped for a good reason. But it's nothing to feel great about. We should all see it as a lesson to not use missiles and nuclear weapons against anyone ever again.
But... humans have a habit of repeating mistakes.
Our mentality never really changes, and fundamental issues remain unsolved.
With climate change, cyber crimes, space waste and all the issues that we should ask be working together, instead humans are still
killing each other under the name of defence and rights.
Pathetic.
And, I'm telling you, no amount of researching will show what really happened. Both me and you are talking based on our own side of research, but like on textbook and education, there's always some agenda, or something missing or warped. You don't know unless you see the fact for yourself.
How long would it take to recover from the radioactivity? The nuclear explosion in Ukraine 🇺🇦 back in 1960s still not recovered
Wow so stunning and sad
Not sad. They deserve it
They did not deserve it, too many innocent people died for what? Ambitions? Pride? Just shut up! NO ONE deserves this@@jk23414
ஜப்பான் வரலாற்றில் மிக மோசமான கருப்பு நாள்😒
Very true but it's nice to see how peaceful Nagasaki has become. Thank you for watching! 😊
長崎の中華街は一番古いもので戦前からあります。歴史的には1571年頃まで遡るそうですが、 現在のものは1701年に原型が形作られたみたいです。
Nice toure journy ☺️☺️🖤🖤
Thank you for watching! 😊
It's war... it's not meant to be pretty.

Peacefull Country USA💓💓
Those people to rest in peace from the war crimes that America did back there
I wonder if you can get cancer from living there
Maybe if it was 50 years ago.
This seems to be a very interesting place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!
Thank you for watching and subscribing! 😊
Before WWII started, Nagasaki was one of two international cities. Nagasaki is the oldest international city with many churches and very traditional looking Chinatown.
Being an American....I am so sorry to what low level to war we went to. So glad to see life flourish.
Countries reallt shouldnt go to war with america, Russia, or North korea....we Ruin Countries. Without mercy. Or any regard for humanity. It is sad.
Sorry to the Japan now but definitely not the Japan then AKA Imperial Japan, those guys stooped to arguably lower levels then a Nuclear Bomb. Ask the eastern side of China during that time.
Being an American myself, I am proud of my country and the fact they stopped Japan dead in their tracks. They were warned to surrender for months but refused to. This is the reality of WAR!
@@davidv.3135 Yea , America made the right choice. Its just such a fucking shame that we bombed a civilian city, with women and children ,far away from the war. Cant imagine being 6 or 7 and suddenly facing death and total destruction with my family. Yea , we won the war, but holy shit what U.S did was brutal. i hope it never comes full circle if you understand what i mean
Peacefull country USA💓💓

Less than eighty years and safe to live in !
There are still some people born with blood disease caused by radiation. They are descendants of survivers.
One of the reasons why Kyoto has become a world-famous tourist destination is that other major cities were bombed with atomic bombs and incendiary bombs and burned without a trace. Since it also targeted civilian houses (which was a violation of international law and a war crime), most of the houses, shrines and castles that typify Japanese culture were burned down. If the US were only aiming at the facilities of the Japanese military, Japan would have been a country full of historical buildings like Kyoto.
It should not be aimed at the general public…
It had to be done since Hirohito was being stubborn in the war, this ended it quickly saving more lives in the long run...
Indeed, but not only Hirohito, it was the whole Japanese army command and staff and politicians that wanted to fight till the end
@@williampitt1537Emperor Hirohito was a puppet of the military government. He appointed General Tojo because he was loyal to him and thought he was the only one who could stop the army from going further into the war. While I don't 100% trust what I read, it's very feasible considering Japanese mentality and human habits. In the end, Hirohito didn't do anything to stop the war. Pressure from the military must've been strong.
The worst trait of Japanese is people don't risk speaking up if they are in minority.
Emperor Hirohito didn't strike me as a charismatic leader with massive ego like starlin or hitler.
From my Japanese standpoint, I think the emperor got carried away rather than proactively involved, but it doesn't mean that he was innocent either.
Do you really believe that dropping A-bombs saved millions of lives in a long run? I don't think so. It killed civilians indiscriminatory and affected generations of lives and contaminated the area for decades. Plus it started the production of whole nuclear weapons.
@@lurkmerchant I agree.
Think she was having argasm eating that by the sound of her 😂
I love you 😚
They learned a lesson tho
They? I mean seriously?
Don't you think we should all learn the lesson how to avoid the war and not to kill? It was civillians and many with Christian faith that were killed. Those who were directly involved were still alive.
Unfortunately the Japanese didn’t surrender when they had the chance. This would never have happened.
Thank you fot this, Nagazaki is a beautiful city.
It is! It’s one of our favourite cities in Japan 😊 Thanks for watching!
Dropping the bomb on Japan is what saved them as a people. Had the allies invaded the Japanese mainland in '45, it would have directly resulted in the death of the vast majority of the Japanese.
