The Birthplace of Japan's Greatest Samurai Warriors
Nagoya is Japan's fourth-largest city, but somewhat shy of tourists; it feels like a low-key local secret. Nestled nicely between Tokyo and Osaka, this middle child of a city shouldn't be underestimated as it has a lot to offer. A true hidden gem, Nagoya is packed with incredible things to do.

Nagoya’s best known attraction is its castle  and is famous for the two golden dolphins that decorate the roof. This castle was first built by the Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1612. Nagoya also has a large number of museums, gardens, and historical temples and shrines. The world's largest railway hub leads to castles, fine museums and Earth's biggest planetarium.

With a rich culture and equally rich food, as well as being located right between Osaka and Tokyo, Nagoya deserves a spot on the list of must-see places in Japan. From the bustle of downtown Sakae to the tranquil hills of Inuyama outside of the city, there is something for everyone in and around this historic jewel of central Japan.
