Glover Garden
Glover Garden is an exotic tourist destination located on the Minami-Yamate Hill, which offers a magnificent panoramic view of Nagasaki Port. This site is one of Nagasaki’s prime attractions, featuring six Western-style houses from the Meiji era, including the former Glover Residence, the former Ringer Residence, and the former Orta Residence, all of which have been relocated and restored as Important Cultural Properties designated by the national government. Historic cobblestones and stone steps spread throughout the garden, breathing life into Nagasaki’s history and culture.
Glover Garden boasts an excellent location overlooking Nagasaki Port with Mount Inasa in the background, and it has continued to enchant notable figures since shortly after the port's opening. Especially from mid-July to early October, when the Western-style buildings are illuminated, a romantic atmosphere different from that of the daytime envelops the area.
When you visit, be sure to look for the heart stone located in part of the cobblestone pathway. It is said that if you touch this stone and make a wish, it will lead to love fulfillment, and it is beloved as a power spot. Additionally, at Glover Garden, you can borrow costumes at the retro photo studio for fun photo shoots. Furthermore, the garden shop offers original goods that make perfect souvenirs.
Glover Garden features well-maintained walkways and escalators suitable for the hilly terrain, making it a beloved destination for visitors of all ages. Enjoy a special moment at this place where history and beautiful scenery intersect.
