Port of Nagasaki

With the creation of Dejima, Japan's only gateway to the rest of the world during the isolation policy of the Edo Period, this port has played a vital role in the reception of foreign industry and culture. It developed as a trading port where ferries from Australia, the Phillipines, America, and other countries would stop off on the Shanghai shipping route. As Japan's leading port of call for tourism, receiving sightseeing liners from a large number of countries, it is the country's first port to be equipped with a wharf capable of docking 100,000 ton ships. It can also accommodate large-size international tourist liners.
