ー What Can You Expect ー
Located approximately 19 kilometers southwest of Nagasaki Port, Nagasaki
Gunkanjima, also known as Hashima Island, served as a seabed coal mining base
owned by Mitsubishi Group. Reclaimed land, high-rise apartments, and various
facilities surrounded the island, resembling a sea fortress due to its
resemblance to a warship. However, in January 1974, the island closed as coal
resources depleted, leaving it uninhabited and in ruins. Fast forward to
January 5, 2009, when it was recorded in the "Kyushu and Yamaguchi
Modernization Industrial Heritage Group," marking the beginning of a new era.
On April 22, 2009, the prohibition on tourist landings was lifted, enabling
various travel companies to operate island tours. In 2012, Gunkanjima gained
World Cultural Heritage status as part of the Meiji Japan Industrial Heritage
Revolutionary Site. Notably, the renowned movie "Skyfall" was filmed on
Gunkanjima in Nagasaki, Japan, further adding to its widespread recognition.
