Introduction
The Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Nagasaki Shipyard Museum stands in Akunoura, Nagasaki, inside the MHI Nagasaki Shipyard, presenting over 160 years of shipbuilding since the 1857 Nagasaki Ironworks. Models, drawings and real parts of warships and merchant vessels trace the birth of Japan's modern shipbuilding; the shipyard is a component of the 'Sites of Japan's Meiji Industrial Revolution' World Heritage, alongside Hashima (Gunkanjima). As the museum is inside an active yard, visits require advance online booking at set times.
