Nagoya Castle – Walk in the Shadow of Samurai Lords Begin your journey at Nagoya Castle, once the seat of the mighty Tokugawa clan. Explore the beautifully restored Honmaru Palace, a masterpiece of traditional Japanese architecture and craftsmanship. Pose for photos dressed as a samurai and feel the spirit of Japan’s warrior past come alive.
Atsuta Shrine – Sacred Ground of the Divine Sword Just minutes away, enter a tranquil forest where silence holds centuries of reverence. Atsuta Shrine, home to the legendary Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, is one of Japan’s Three Sacred Sites. Wander under towering cypress trees, listen to the hush of footsteps on gravel paths, and experience the spiritual calm firsthand. For a unique hands-on experience, try lifting a replica of the shrine’s giant sacred sword—a challenge that connects you physically to Japan’s myths and legends.
️Osu – Where Tradition Dances with Pop Culture Finish your journey in Osu, a district bursting with contrast and color. Temples stand beside manga shops, vintage kimono stores face off with ramen joints, and the scent of takoyaki wafts through lantern-lit arcades. Enjoy local lunch favorites such as gohei mochi, tenmusu, and miso katsu, savoring flavors unique to Nagoya.
