	The impressive spots in Shimabara
		The castle was completed after more than seven years, and was inhabited by many subsequent generations of the daimyo.Thus, Shimabara came to be the administrative and economic center of the peninsula.
		The castle is now in use as an educational and cultural facility that houses a collection of Christian relics, the Kitamura Seibo Museum, a museum dedicated to the revival of tourism, and a collection of folk artifacts.
		There are fresh springs all over Shimabara, and carp swim in their pools, adding to the charm of this city of water.

		Shimabara City faces Shimabara Bay on the east coast of the Shimabara-hanto Peninsula.
		It prospered as the town around Shimabara Castle, built in the 17th century, and old temples and the sites of lower-class samurai houses used until the 19th century, still remain today.
		Missionaries were active in Shimabara in the early 17th century, and many locals became Christians.
