A snack the whole family loves. It's thin and crispy, with a light texture that doesn't feel heavy, making it easy to eat one after another and hard to stop. Besides the usual packaging, there are also cute small tin versions. The designs on the tins are all adorable, and seasonal limited editions are released too, making me want to collect them every time I see one. After finishing the cookies, the small tins can also be used to store little items, making them both practical and memorable〜

Kujukushima Senpei Honpo "Kujukushima Senpei"
A classic Nagasaki souvenir that has been loved since its debut in 1951. It was created through trial and error by a small confectionery shop founded in 1948 in Sasebo City, Nagasaki Prefecture, shortly after the war, with the goal of making a new local sweet unlike anything else at the time. Its hexagonal shape is modeled after the auspicious shell of a turtle, and the peanuts generously scattered throughout the dough represent the beautiful silhouettes of the Kujukushima Islands.
Kujukushima Senpei is a well-known souvenir from Sasebo, Nagasaki, Japan. Inspired by the beautiful seascape of the Kujukushima Islands, it has a delicate appearance with distinctive wave-like patterns embossed on the surface. The senpei is crispy, with a subtle sweetness and buttery aroma, and tastes light without being too rich. It pairs well with either coffee or tea〜

Nabekanmuriyama Park
This park sits atop Mt. Nabekanmuri in Nagasaki’s Minamiyamate district. Located about a 10-minute walk from Glover Garden’s second gate, the area has long been affectionately known as “Nabekaburi-yama,” or “inverted pot mountain,” for its rounded, pot-like shape, embraced by lush greenery.
If you're visiting Nagasaki, I recommend stopping by Nabekanmuriyama Park to enjoy the night view! It's a free observation spot, and from the observation deck in the evening, you can see twinkling lights against the harbor. It's romantic and enchanting, and also a lesser-known spot well worth saving.
