To better display Dejima's fan-shaped form, the project anticipated rebuilding only parts of the surrounding embankment wall that had once enclosed the island.

Currently, some 10 buildings throughout the area have been restored. </p><p>In 2017, six new buildings, as well as the Omotemon Bridge (the old bridge to the mainland), were restored.
