Navigate the vivid streets, uncover hidden natural wonders, taste remarkable food, and absorb rich cultural experiences.

Day 1 - Hello, Sasebo

Sasebo is a charming city that will appeal to anyone with a sense of adventure and an appreciation for beautiful landscapes. You'll kickstart your escapade with a trip to Kujukushima - a stunning archipelago of 208 islands. So, ready to take one of those breathtaking pearl sea cruises and grab some amazing pictures? Of course, you are! After transforming into a shutterbug, how about munching on Sasebo burgers? These American-inspired Japanese snacks are a must-try, seriously. Having satiated your appetite, we suggest taking a leisurely stroll through Mikawachi, famed for its history in pottery. You can, no, make that 'you must' check out the blue-and-white Nabeshima porcelain. End your day by soaking in the sunset at Myokosan Observatory. Get ready, you're about to fall in love with the city's skyline.

Day 2 - An Aqua Affair

Wouldn't it be a treat to start the day with the fascinating marine life? Yes, we thought so too! So, on your Day 2, you'll be making a visit to the Umi-Kirara Aquarium. The aquarium is home to a variety of intriguing marine species, but the highlight is witnessing Kujukushima's seascape through the large acryl glass. Next, get ready to explore the heart of the city, visiting Saikai Park and the Sasebo Central Park. Not only are these parks lush and serene, they also offer glorious views of the city. Top off the day with a delectable dinner, may we suggest trying Chanpon, a local noodle dish? How about an evening stroll around the vibrant Yonkacho shopping district afterwards?

Day 3 - The Historic Huis Ten Bosch

Day 3, your adventure in Sasebo culminates in a way that's as dramatic as the city itself with a visit to Huis Ten Bosch. This European-inspired theme park is an undeniable spectacle. Hey, don't you fancy walking down the cobblestone streets of this Dutch city - in Japan! This unique experience is punctuated by lush flower gardens, picturesque canals, and grand windmills. You can even step into the Shoes Kingdom or the Chocolate Palace. Sounds fantastical, right? Well, that's Sasebo for you. Round off your trip with a quiet evening at Yosoro Park, watching the city lights twinkle and reflect off the harbor as your Sasebo sojourn winds down.
