Nagoya Travel Guide: 409 reviews and 829 photos

Nagoya, a city of two and a half million, claims the title of Japan's forth largest city and has been the crossroads between eastern and western Japan for centuries.

Nagoya provides a gateway to Inuyama, site of one of Japan's few original castles and home to an outstanding open air museum featuring Meiji era architecture; Ise, home of Japan's most sacred Shinto shrine; and Hikone, another original castle. You'll find good food in Nagoya, especially local chicken, kishimen noodles and sukiyaki, using premium Matsuzaka beef raised nearby.

Nagoya borders Japan's two large plains; Kanto, with Tokyo as its centre, and Kansai, with Osaka/Kyoto as its centre.

The above photo is an ariel view of Nagoya taken from the TV Tower in the center of the city.

I think I have been to dat bar.Does that place have a classic air football table near the entrance?The bar tender sometimes has his dog inside the front.If so you might have seen my auntie or some of her friends there. They are regulars.
