Huis Ten Bosch

Huis Ten Bosch in Sasebo City, Nagasaki Prefecture, offers a setting where visitors can immerse themselves in an atmosphere filled with a foreign charm. Upon entering this expansive area, one encounters brick buildings and well-maintained canals that recreate the scenery of a European town.

The grounds feature cobblestone streets traversed by horse-drawn carriages and breezes that flow over the canals. The carefully crafted townscape changes its appearance depending on the time of day and the season. During the day, vibrant flowers bathed in sunlight decorate the area, reflecting the natural beauty of each season. Along the canals, visitors can walk beside the waters, taking in the international ambiance.
