    Even after the Shogunate adopted its policy of national isolation, the Dutch were the only Westerners permitted to maintain a trading post on Dejima in Nagasaki and engage in commerce. To express their gratitude, the Chief of the Dutch Trading Post (known as the "Capitan") traveled to Edo and stayed at Nagasaki-ya. From here, they would visit Edo Castle to have an audience with the Shogun and present gifts. During the Dutch delegation's stay at Nagasaki-ya, it is said that many scholars of Western Learning (Rangaku) and physicians flocked to the residence. They were eager to gain the latest European technology and knowledge brought to Japan through the Dutch.
