What you’ll do
From its rich industrial history at an automotive giant to its current reputation as a fast-paced cosmopolitan hub (and major otaku hotspot thanks to downtown Osu), Nagoya is a must-see city for too many reasons to squeeze into four hours. But with a local host as the world’s most efficient GPS, you could be endlessly entertained in the downtown districts, from weaving through throngs at ultra-futuristic Oasis 21 mall next to the iconic Nagoya TV Tower to testing your luck at a hidden pachinko parlor - the popular slot machine invented right here in the city. Or, discover Japanese tradition at the historic Port of Nagoya or the Japanese-style Shirotori Garden for a teahouse ceremony.
