Dejima
Only the trading port in Japan during Natinal isolation
The fan-shaped artificial island in the bay of Nagasaki that was a Dutch trading port
as Japan’s only open gateway to Europe during Japan’s self-imposed isolation of Edo period
from 1641 until 1853. The Dutch East India Company’s trading post at Dejima was closed in
1857. Since then, the island has been surrounded by reclaimed land and merged into Nagasaki:
its original location is marked by rivets.
