I want to see famous scenes with my own eyes! Movie “Ao Haru Ride” filming location Saruku
``Ao Haru Ride'' is a movie based on the best-selling comic that has sold over 800 million copies.
The name ``Ao Haru Ride'' is a combination of ``youth'' = ``Ao Haru'' and ``riding'' = ``Ride,'' which means that all the characters are riding on their youth. Futaba and Kou's love begins to take off as they struggle with their sparkling youth and bittersweet lethargy.
Let's take a tour of the filming locations in Nagasaki, the setting of such youth (Aoharu)!

START
Day 1
Glover Garden
Experience the spectacular view of Nagasaki Port that even great figures were fascinated by!
Approximately 40 extras, including local high school students who played students on the school trip, participated at Glover Garden, and scenes such as Yuri holding Touma back were filmed. Since the local extras were from the Kanto region, they were careful not to use the Nagasaki dialect in conversation.
Glover Garden is located on Minami-Yamate Hill, overlooking the panoramic view of Nagasaki Port, and is one of Nagasaki's most popular sightseeing spots, full of exotic atmosphere.
Six Western-style buildings from the Meiji period that were scattered around the city have been relocated and restored, mainly the former Glover House, former Ringer House, and former Orto House, all of which are nationally designated important cultural properties. The stone pavements and stone steps that retain the vestiges of the settlement era further enhance the atmosphere of history and culture. Every part of the park is decorated with flowers, and no matter where you look, it's a picturesque space.

Day 1
Oura Observatory Park
Poppen also appears in the flashback scene!
A flashback scene of Kou and his mother from the past was filmed. Kumiko Okae, who played the role of the mother wearing a yukata and blowing a poppen, spoke the Nagasaki dialect very well!
From the park, you can see the Higashi-Yamate townscape, including Western-style houses and the Confucius Temple, as well as Nagasaki Port, and Oura Observation Park is lit up at night. The beautiful night view of Nagasaki, one of the world's three most beautiful cities, can be seen below.
If you are confident in your legs, try going down the very steep 45 degree slope on the side of the park.

Day 1
Holland Hill
The stone-paved slopes of the Higashi-Yamate area, a remnant of a foreign settlement and filled with an exotic atmosphere
It appeared as a school trip scene for Futaba's classmates Shuko, Kominato, and Yuri.
Holland Hill is a stone-paved slope located in the Higashi-Yamate district, which is lined with Western-style houses and has an exotic atmosphere.
In Nagasaki, the only area of trade in Japan during the Edo period, non-Oriental people were still called "Dutch-san" even after the country was opened, perhaps due to the influence of the Dutch living in Dejima. For this reason, it is thought that at that time all slopes in foreign settlements were called Dutch slopes, meaning ``the slopes that Dutch people pass through''. Currently, the slopes below Katsusui Women's University, Katsumizuzaka, and the slope in front of Seikoin Temple are mainly called Oranda Slope.

![[Lunch] Nagasaki Shinchi Chinatown](https://www.at-nagasaki.jp/storage/tourism_attractions/111/responsive_images/YsQGBh1jyl6ELL7QZuSWbaJ9UmVLzrdbcDUsZA6E__1749_1288.jpg)
Enjoy gourmet food and shopping in Japan's three major Chinatowns!
If you want to eat Nagasaki Chinese food, this is the place! Although it is not a movie filming location, why not try some delicious Nagasaki Chinese food for lunch?
Nagasaki Shinchi Chinatown is one of Japan's three major Chinatowns, along with Yokohama and Kobe.
It is a popular tourist spot with easy access, arriving in less than 10 minutes on the tram from JR Nagasaki Station. It was built by reclaiming land from the sea in the mid-Edo period to build a warehouse for trade goods from China.
Approximately 250 stores, including Chinese restaurants, Chinese sweets, and Chinese miscellaneous goods, are lined up along the crossroads, which is about 40 meters long from east to west and north to south.
How about eating cute-looking Chinese sweets and braised manju while enjoying the exotic cityscape?
Nagasaki's famous ``champon'' and ``sara udon'' have unique flavors at each store, so we recommend trying them out and comparing them!
Chinese grocery stores have a wide variety of products, including ingredients directly imported from Shanghai and Hong Kong, so you'll have fun choosing souvenirs.

Takahira Bridge
Struggle to hand out flyers informing everyone about the shooting!
At Takahira Bridge near the Sofukuji tram stop, we filmed the scene where Futaba yells at a frightened Kou.
Since the surrounding area is a residential area, the staff worked hard to hand out approximately 1,000 flyers asking for cooperation in taking photos, including those of Tateyama and Nishiyama Honmachi.

The filming location has been cranked up!
The scene where Yui Narumi calls Kou and the scene where Futaba makes a line were filmed on the iron bridge in front of Hama no Machi Arcade, while passersby on their way home from work or school were busy coming and going.

Kuishi
One of the oldest arched stone bridges in existence and one of Japan's three most famous bridges. Nationally designated important cultural property
At Meganebashi, Futaba's fierce dash was filmed in front of a gallery of nearly 200 people.
Meganebashi Bridge is said to have been built in 1634 by Zen Master Mokusu Nyojo of Kofukuji Temple. When the water level is low, you can use the stairs to go down to the river's edge and stroll along the water's edge. Heart stones located along the Nakashima River embankment, including Megane Bridge, are attracting attention as power spots for fulfilling love, so be sure to look for them when you visit.

Day 1
Nishiyamahonmachi
The director also loves the Nagasaki-like location!
A location with stairs and slopes typical of Nagasaki, right near Nagasaki Junior High School.
Scenes surrounding Kou's past were filmed here. Everyone was surprised at the length of the slopes in Nagasaki! Apparently, this was one scene in which he survived through a battle of physical strength.
Also, in the art room of Nagasaki Junior High School, the scene where Futaba discovers the words Kou wrote on the desk was filmed.
*You cannot normally enter Nagasaki Junior High School.

Interview and location shoot were held!
Stay at this hotel on the first day! The location was used as the accommodation for the main characters on their school trip. Local high school extras are also very active! In addition, a local interview with director Miki was held at our hotel, and the director commented that he particularly liked the line, ``Youth always makes mistakes. But that's exactly why it's youth.''
Inasayama Kanko Hotel is located halfway up Mt. Inasa, and from the hotel you can enjoy Nagasaki Port, the cityscape of Nagasaki, and the spectacular night view. The hotel also boasts a large public bath with a view, a garden open-air bath, and seasonal Japanese cuisine.

Day 2
Inasayama Observation Deck
Enjoy the romantic night view that shines as one of the world's new top three night views
It is a landmark of Nagasaki City and a popular photogenic spot that is crowded with people watching the night view.
When visiting filming locations, we recommend visiting on the morning of the actual filming! From Inasayama Kanko Hotel, head there by taxi or rental car. On location, the staff began preparations at 2 a.m. at Mt. Inasa Observation Deck to capture the sunrise scene. The observatory, which is usually closed, was opened early with the cooperation of local people. Also, although the photo was taken in May, even though it was spring, the temperature at the top of the mountain was 5 degrees Celsius. It seems that the entire cast and staff braved the cold to go on location! The climactic scene was filmed here. The scene where their faces were illuminated by the light and the sun began to rise was moving.

In addition, Mogi is the production area for the richly aromatic ``Mogi loquat''! ``Mogi Loquat Jelly'' has a melt-in-your-mouth texture, just the right amount of sweetness, and a refreshing appearance with plenty of orange loquats, making it the perfect souvenir from Nagasaki.

Kurosaki Church
Impressive with beautiful stained glass and solid brickwork
Nagasaki location for "Ao Haru Ride" which started from Kurosaki Church. Important scenes such as Kou and Futaba coming to church and Kou confronting his past were filmed here. On this day, Tsubasa Honda gave gifts to the staff, and they disappeared in no time.
The grounds for Kurosaki Church were created in 1897 under the guidance of Father de Rotz, and completed in 1920. It is also known as the setting for Shusaku Endo's novel ``Silence,'' and from where the church is built, you can see the dazzling blue waters of Sumonada.
