Hamanomachi Arcade 浜町アーケード

The whole street is National Route 324: pedestrian-only, except from 5:00 to 10:00 in the morning.

Nagasaki's main shopping street, which grew from the Meiji period onwards, when the area, once facing the port and later reclaimed, filled up with shops. Selected in 2009 as one of the ‘77 shopping streets that are giving it their all’ nationwide, it remains one of the few Japanese arcades that are still lively, while other cities are seeing theirs close.
