Explore the iconic Hashima Island, commonly known as Gunkanjima or Battleship Island. Designated as a World Heritage Site of the Meiji Industrial Revolution due to its significant impact on Japanese cultural heritage. One of Nagasaki's 500+ uninhabited islands, it once symbolized Japan's rapid industrialization in the 20th century. Wander its open grounds, where abandoned buildings remain as they were. You will also learn that the site was originally known for its undersea coal mines operated in the 1890s. It has also served as a filming location for many popular American production companies, such as Netflix, the History Network, and the Science Channel.
