In the 1800s, Niigata thrived as a port city. Ships from Russia, China, England, and all over the world came here to trade. Niigata citizens led lucrative lives making their living by shipping cargo and selling local products (mainly agricultural). The city was flooded with sailors from all over the world, allowing Niigata to blend and change with their influence.
Join us on an historical walking tour through the old port town Niigata, where we will explore the unique harmony of Western and Japanese cultures that developed in Niigata in the 1800s.
Although the tour is 3.5 hours long, fear not! Only about 4 km of actual distance is covered. There will be plenty of chances to rest your feet and take a deep long look at every location.
Niigata City prospered as a port town for many years. Learn the exciting history of one of 5 first ports to open to international trade. Visit several historical and cultural sites and imagine yourself the resident of these exciting times.
We will show you many secret spots and tell fun facts that even Niigata Locals do not know about! Take a truly deep dive into this wonderfilled city.
