[2025 Nagasaki Attraction] Travel Guide for Mt. Inasayama Observatory (Updated Jul)

The night view is fascinating, not to mention the night view of Mount Inasa in Nagasaki, which is listed as one of the new three major night views in the world. How can you miss the night view of Mount Inasa when traveling to Nagasaki in Kyushu, Japan? Take the cable car to the top of the mountain, walk for two minutes, and the dazzling night view will come into view. It is generally believed that the original three major night views of the world are Hong Kong, Hakodate in Hokkaido, and Naples in Italy, but the basis for this is not verifiable. In 2012, "night view tourists" certified by Japan's "Night View Sightseeing Convention Bureau" voted for the world's new top three night views: Hong Kong, Nagasaki and Monaco. The conference was held again in 2021. This time, Monaco, Nagasaki and Shanghai took the top three places, while Hong Kong dropped to fifth place. The "Taiwan Lantern Festival" was certified as a "World Night View Heritage" at this conference. Attractions: Mt. Inasa Summit Observatory Address: 〒852-8011 Inasayama Park, 364 Inasa-cho, Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture Opening hours: 08:00-22:00 Transportation: Take Route 5 from Nagasaki Station towards Inasayama Line. The ride takes about 15-20 minutes and you get off at the last stop, Inasayama.

Nagasaki night view was named the “World’s New Top Three Night Views” along with Hong Kong and Monaco in 2012, and in 2018 it was named the “New Top Three Night Views in Japan” along with Sapporo and Kitakyushu. Nagasaki Inasa Mountain Observation Deck, definitely the best place to enjoy the night view of Nagasaki! The altitude of Mount Inasa is 333 meters, and the scenery here is open, where you can slowly and carefully enjoy the beautiful scenery of Nagasaki city, the peaks and the coast. And the TV signal tower on the mountain will also be lit up in different colors, worth taking pictures! I chose to take the cable car to Mount Inasa because I could take a look at the Aeshin Shrine! And the cable car is a 360-degree transparent design, so you can climb the mountain while seeing the beautiful scenery of Nagasaki! #Japan Attractions #Nagasaki night view

Arriving in Fukuoka at dusk, the lights were like stars falling on the earth, and the city slowly woke up in the night. Strolling to the Nakasu street, the steam was steaming, reflecting the warm lights; the dialect voices of the stall owners scooping soup were one after another, like intimate whispers. A bowl of rich Hakata pork bone ramen went down my throat, as if holding the warmth and fireworks of the whole city in my palm. The next morning, I visited Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine. The vermilion torii stood solemnly, the ancient plums on both sides of the stone path quietly exhaled fragrance, and the shadows of the trees were swaying, and the quietness spread. Touching the back of the thousand-year-old stone beast, the fingertips touched not only the slight coolness, but also the heavy precipitation of years. Before leaving, I climbed the stairs and took a bite of the warm plum cake. The sweet and delicate bean paste melted on the tip of my tongue, as if holding the gentle soul of Fukuoka. Outside the window of the plane on the way back, the colorful city lights in the twilight gradually shrank into a flowing sea of ​​light. Fukuoka, this land, has quietly painted a vivid Ukiyo-e in my heart - the bustle of the city and the quietness of the shrine are intertwined, like floating light and shadow, silently soaking every line of memory. "," "rich Hakata pork bone ramen," "vermilion torii," "quiet meaning" and other concrete descriptions, as well as the metaphor of "Ukiyo-e", vividly convey the unique style of Fukuoka.

From the observation deck at the summit of Mount Inasayama, you can take in the breathtaking views of Nagasaki City. Standing at this vantage point, you can gaze down upon the city, where the urban landscape and harbor intertwine to create a three-dimensional masterpiece. The nighttime scenery is particularly enchanting, with twinkling lights resembling a dreamlike world filled with starlight. The harbor's graceful lines, dotted with ships, resemble a living painting. The city's architecture is a harmonious blend of modern skyscrapers and traditional neighborhoods, showcasing Nagasaki's unique urban texture. In the distance, the surrounding mountains seamlessly merge with the cityscape, forming a panoramic view that is both refreshing and awe-inspiring. The observation deck offers a magical perspective—during the day, you can admire the city's intricate layout, while at night, you can marvel at the dazzling sea of lights. Every angle presents a unique urban landscape, capturing the charm of Nagasaki.

#0yentravelautumn Mount Inasa in Nagasaki looked beautiful both day and night. The ropeway was nice, but the slope car that starts halfway up the mountain is recommended because you can get a good view of the surrounding scenery from the moment you get on.

#September2024 When you come to Nagasaki, how can you miss the night view of Nagasaki, one of the three major night views in Asia? Looking down from the Inasayama Observation Deck, you can have a panoramic view of the entire bustling city of Nagasaki.

Nagasaki is known as a beautiful port town, an attractive city where history and different cultures blend together. It was the only place in the Edo period where trade with overseas countries was permitted, and Dutch and Chinese cultures remain strong even today. In addition to historical tourist attractions such as Glover Garden and Dejima, the view from Mount Inasa, a night view spot, has been selected as one of the "New Three Great Night Views in the World." You can also feel the message of peace at Peace Park and the Atomic Bomb Museum. Nagasaki Champon and Castella are famous foods that will satisfy all visitors.

#Night view#Nagasaki travel I've been to Tokyo Sky Tower and there are many famous observatories, but it's also great to enjoy the night view in Nagasaki I've been to the gondola and seen the sunset and the night view, and there's a cafe inside the observatory and many Japanese locals come here If you go to Nagasaki, go see the night view^^

#AugustDestinations2024 #100WaysToTravel #SkylineView Mount Inasa is located in Inasa-cho, Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture. From the Inasayama Observatory, you can see the "Night View of Nagasaki" which is said to be "worth tens of millions of dollars". The night view of Nagasaki was selected as one of the "New Three Night Views of the World" along with Monaco and Shanghai, and was certified as one of the "New Three Night Views of Japan" in 2022.

I went to Mount Inasa, a spectacular spot with one of the world's new three greatest night views! 💨 Unfortunately, it wasn't a clear day, but the view from the observation deck was still amazing 👀💕 The vending machine closest to the observation deck was completely cashless, so if you want to pay with cash, it might be better to buy it at a store or bring it yourself 🧋 This time I went by ropeway, and the view during the ride was also great! 🚡🌉 I recommend going a little before sunset to enjoy both the light and dark views! However, there are still a lot of people at this time of day, and the ropeway gets quite crowded 💦 And it's very hot! Please enjoy your trip after taking proper measures against infectious diseases and heat stroke 🥵 👍 Access ・Bus Take Nagasaki Bus Route 5 (To Inasayama) from Nagasaki Station and get off at the last stop "Inasayama Bus Stop" ・Car [From JR Nagasaki Station] Total: about 15 minutes, 5.5km 1.

#AdventurousTraveler Signed as one of the three major night views in Asia [Inasa Mountain] I remember that it was the beginning of winter and the weather was quite cold. In addition, the temperature felt even colder when we climbed to a high altitude, so we wore more warm clothes. Walk through an orange torii gate at the foot of the mountain and you will see the cable car station. Take the cable car to the Inasayama Observation Deck to enjoy the night view. When you get off the bus, you will pass Rainbow Avenue first, and the night view of Nagasaki Prefecture will come into view as you leave. If you can start earlier like me and get to the observation deck earlier, you can take a time-lapse video and capture the entire process of the transition from day to night sky. It is so beautiful that you must experience it yourself. Since it was winter, we couldn’t stay outside for too long as our hands and feet would become numb from the cold. So we bought a cup of hot coffee to keep warm and continued to enjoy the view of Mt. Inasa. In winter, if you go to the top of a mountain to see the night view and persist in the spirit of adventure, the beautiful results will be realized and fulfilled. #Nagasaki Night View #Inasayama

#JuneGoodDestination2024 #FreeVIPRoomChange on the 27th of each month Membership Day #Register for June Hotel Test Sleeper #StarWriterJuneVlog What are the three major night views in the world that come to mind? The night view of Hong Kong is one of them, and the night view of Nagasaki is also included! 🌇🌆 This time I went to the Inasayama restaurant ITADAKI, which has a night view of Nagasaki. The restaurant is located in the observation tower on the top of the mountain. You can enjoy the night view while enjoying delicious food🌃🌌🏞️🍲. The craft beer here is smooth and easy to drink, and their delicious dishes use a lot of authentic ingredients from Nagasaki Prefecture, which is definitely a romantic dinner choice. They served the bread first 🍞, with olive oil. I prefer their Nagasaki Wagyu steak, the meat is tasty and has no fishy smell. The matcha chocolate dessert is rich but not too sweet, and the fried red snapper is just right, with plump meat 🍫🍵🐟. Although it was raining and foggy that day, we were able to see the night view of Nagasaki when the fog slowly dissipated. This beautiful scenery truly deserves the title of one of the three greatest night views in the world. 🌧️☁️🌃✨ ITADAKI Special Menu Cold Appetizer: Spanish Omelette🍳with Colorful Vegetables🥦 Hot Appetizer: Onion Puree🧅with Braised Scallops🥘 Fish: Pan-fried Red Snapper🐠with Mussel Sauce🍲 Meat: Nagasaki Wagyu Steak🥩 Ending Dish: ITADAKI Curry Rice🍛with Unzen Pork🐖 Dessert: Matcha Chocolate Cake🍵🍰 Baguette, Coffee🍞☕ Inasayama Restoran ITADAKI 364 Inasa-cho, Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture

Friends who are going to Nagasaki Inasayama to see the night view, you might as well plan to have dinner at the Hikari Restaurant on the lower floor of the observatory. It happens that you can eat two Nagasaki specialties, long stick noodles and Turkish rice. If you have a hard time choosing, just have a meal of both 😂😂 Since Nagasaki was one of the earliest ports in Japan to open up to foreign exchanges, its food culture is often mixed with foreign flavors. Champon is one of the dishes with Japanese-Chinese variations. The soup base uses Japanese pork bone soup, and the side dishes are stir-fried seafood and vegetables using the Chinese hot stir-fry method. With the addition of special noodles, you can taste the wok aroma of Chinese dishes and the fragrance of pork bone soup. It seems simple, but it is not easy to combine the two things well. Turkish rice is even more magical, and has nothing to do with Turkey at all 😂 There are many theories about the origin of the name. The more interesting one is that pasta represents Europe, curry rice represents Asia, and the fried pork chop in the middle is like Turkey, which spans the Eurasian continent. I admire the Japanese spirit of doing things seriously, combining two completely unrelated dishes and making them delicious. Of course, I think Japanese ingredients also have a plus point, such as fried pork chop and pearl rice, which you can't taste in other countries. 💸Turkish rice + soup + drink 1600 yen / Champon noodles 1100 yen 📍 Hikari no Restoran (Light's Restaurant)/Food Belog 3.28 Address: 2F, Inasayama Observatory, 364 Inasa-cho, Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture #Japan and Korea City Attractions #Japan Travel #Japanese Food #foodphotography #Food Tour #Food Guide

The world's three major night views are held at the Night View Summit in Japan, which is hosted by Japan's "Night View Tourism Convention Bureau" and specializes in studying the impact of night views on the tourism industry. The organizer decides the results based on questionnaires and field surveys. The night view of Nagasaki has long been ranked first in Japan. On October 5, 2012, Nagasaki was selected as one of the new three major night views in the world along with Hong Kong and Monaco by the judges. The city center of Nagasaki is surrounded by mountains on three sides, so many houses are built on the hillsides, forming many stepped or sloping streets. The layered feeling created by the hilly terrain makes the lights of thousands of houses appear very three-dimensional. Coupled with the lights of Nagasaki Port, the night view of Nagasaki City can be appreciated from multiple angles, making it a popular destination. 📍 Inasayama summit observatory 〒852-8011 Inasayama Park, 364 Ohama-cho, Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture Transportation: 1. Take the Nagasaki Bus Route 5 from Nagasaki Station towards Inasayama Line for about 16 minutes and get off at the last stop, Inasayama (direct access) 2. If you want to take the cable car up the mountain, you can take the tram to the ground "Takaracho Station" and then transfer to the cable car #Japan and Korea City Attractions #Japan Travel #Japan Attractions #Japan

July 2018 #NagasakiTravel #If you come to Nagasaki, there is another place you must visit. It is the #Inasayama (#稲佐山) observation deck, which is called one of the new top 3 night view points in Japan. I walked from downtown Nagasaki while looking at Google Maps, and I was able to enjoy the simple small town scenery. After arriving at the ropeway boarding station, I bought a round-trip ticket, took the cable car up the mountain, and watched the scenery change every moment from the observation deck. The sun setting behind the mountain and the sunset were nice, and the view of downtown Nagasaki on the other side was also pretty. If you ask me if it is one of the top 3 views, I can't answer right away. #Japan #JapanTravel #KyushuTravel #WorldTravel

The Mount Inasa summit observation deck is counted among the top three night views in Japan and one of the new top three night views in the world, and offers a beautiful panoramic view of the city of Nagasaki. You can reach the top by car, and there is a paid parking lot. (There is also a ropeway, 1250 yen round trip). There were a lot of buses coming, so I think you can get there on a hotel tour or by bus from Nagasaki city. There is also a cafe and it is a well-maintained observation deck, so you can enjoy the view at your leisure. Please go and check it out!

Visited in June 2023 *Inasayama Observatory 407-6 Fuchimachi, Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture Nagasaki's $10 million night view spot, certified as one of the world's new three best night views✨ Inasayama Observatory is a very popular spot for viewing the night view. The light space created by the lights scattered on the floor creates a romantic atmosphere☺️ On a clear day, you can see not only Nagasaki city, but also Unzen, Amakusa, and the Goto Islands😊 Easy access from the parking lot by slope car✨ However, the sun set around 19:30, so you can't see the night view until after 20:00 before it gets completely dark😂 It is recommended to check the sunset time in advance before visiting🎵 #Domestic travel#Nagasaki #Nagasaki sightseeing #Nagasaki trip #Nagasaki tourist spot #New world's three best night views #Night view #Inasayama Observatory
