Nagasaki By Night
The night was young, so we jumped on the tram and ventured out to the ropeway (cable car) to take us to the top of one of Nagaski’s surrounding mountains. (It is surrounded by mountains on 3 sides of the city). While the ride up there wasn’t anything special, it only took about 6 or 7 minutes and was definitely worth it. The view from the observatory at the top was spectacular! You could see the whole city, all around, and it was all illuminated which was a stunning view. The city, building, parks and bridges, the rivers, the outlines of the mountains, it could all be seen. We photographed it all from as many angles as we could then hopped back on the ropeway for our return trip down the mountain.
