Nagasaki is a city with a wealth of history and mystery. It\u00a0has many sightseeing places, mostly built since the Shogun era. One of those places, a romantic garden, located in the southern part of the city, called Glover Garden.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n Glover Garden was built in 1863 by Thomas Blake Glover, a Scottish merchant. Glover contributed to the modernization of Japan through his Glover trading company. He is famous as the father of Japanese beer, and the Kirin Beer logo shares the famous Moustache of Glover.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Glover Garden is a quiet and relaxing place, a romantic spot far from the haste and rush hour of the city. It offers visitors several old buildings and a beautiful garden outside. There are many interesting old buildings and houses with unique atmospheres which in its own ways are also romantic.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The former Glover House, which is a nationally designated important cultural property, is the city’s oldest Western-style wooden house. It is a unique building with a garden in front of the house, with tulips blooming there in spring. In addition to the many old, Western-style buildings, their furniture and concept are also unique and mysterious, like something out of a scene from a movie.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Inside\u00a0this romantic\u00a0garden, you can enjoy yourself in a cafeteria that has a superb view of Nagasaki port. Glover Garden is open daily (depending on the season) from 8:00 to 18:00. The entrance fee is 610 yen for adults and 300 yen for high school students. Groups of more than 15 people will receive a cheaper entrance fee.<\/p>\n
