About ONE ANSWER

Let’s open a treasure chest
And depart on a journey
Across the gulf of time

The history of Nagasaki is shaped by layer upon layer of diverse cultures. Although complex and intricate, these layers form an accumulation of treasures ready to pass on to the unseen world of the future. The term ONE ANSWER means “connecting countless treasures to arrive at a single answer.” Visitors are invited to use this as a watchword and enjoy the museums and art galleries of Hirado, Nagasaki, Shimabara Peninsula, Sotome, and the Goto Islands, where they will discover the key themes of “international exchange” and “religious faith” in the treasure chest of Nagasaki history.
