Visiting the Site of the Former Dutch Trading Post on Dejima was like stepping back in time to an incredibly unique period in Japanese history. The restored buildings and exhibits provide fascinating insights into the early Dutch-Japanese trade relationship, the architecture, and daily life of the people who lived and worked here. Walking through the narrow streets and rooms filled with historical artifacts and displays made it easy to imagine the cultural exchanges that took place centuries ago. It’s a must-see for history buffs or anyone interested in learning about Japan’s Edo period and its early interactions with the West. The area is well-maintained, and there are informative plaques in multiple languages, making it accessible for international visitors. Highly recommend spending a few hours here to fully take in the experience!

Interesting area that talks about the history of Japan and their trade with the dutch. There are traditional buildings that are reconstructed using traditional methods that you can visit here. Also exhibition also the goods that were traded back in the day. If you are tired there is cafe where you can grab some snacks. For unknown reasons, some of the exhibition are only in Japanese, no English version. There is a video played near the entrance/exit if you watch anime or know some Japanese it should give you some idea of what is happening here in the past. Visited: 2 Nov 2024, still kinda hot

Dejima ist ein einzigartiger historischer Ort in Nagasaki, der einen tiefen Einblick in Japans Zeit der Abschottung (Sakoku) bietet. Ursprünglich im 17. Jahrhundert als künstliche Insel angelegt, diente Dejima als Handelsstützpunkt der Niederländischen Ostindien-Kompanie – und war über 200 Jahre lang Japans einziges Tor zum Westen. Heute ist Dejima ein liebevoll restauriertes Freilichtmuseum, das Geschichte lebendig macht. Beim Betreten der Anlage fühlt man sich in die Edo-Zeit zurückversetzt. Die nachgebauten Lagerhäuser, Wohnräume der niederländischen Händler, das Haupttor und sogar ein christlicher Friedhof geben ein authentisches Bild des damaligen Lebens. Viele Gebäude sind begehbar und mit historischen Gegenständen, Möbeln und Schautafeln ausgestattet, sodass Besucher viel über den Alltag, den Handel und die kulturellen Begegnungen zwischen Japan und Europa erfahren können. Besonders eindrucksvoll ist, wie detailliert und anschaulich die Ausstellung aufbereitet ist – auch auf Englisch. Moderne Multimedia-Elemente ergänzen die traditionelle Darstellung und machen den Besuch auch für jüngere Gäste interessant. Dejima ist ein absolutes Muss für alle, die sich für Geschichte und internationale Beziehungen interessieren. Der Ort zeigt auf eindrucksvolle Weise, wie selbst in Zeiten der Isolation kultureller Austausch möglich war – und welche Rolle Nagasaki dabei gespielt hat.
