นาโกย่า Nagoya

ตั๋วเครื่องบินไปนาโกย่า ราคาถูก Cheap flights and information

Strategically placed on what was centuries ago the vital Tokaido Road, Nagoya became an important resting stop on the long and arduous journey between Kyoto and Tokyo. As this village way-station grew, so did the significance of its great landmarks, Atsuta Shrine, and Nagoya Castle. With the completion of the magnificent castle in the early 1600’s, development began to sprout up around the imposing fortress and soon, Nagoya found itself stepping out of the shadows of its two bigger sister cities. And as Nagoya prospered, it became a destination in itself with business, industry and transport becoming the driving force for growth and development.    

While Nagoya may be Japan’s fourth most populous city, its landmark castle and placid shrines and temples serve as a reminder of the city’s great past, where ancient traditions and imperial customs can still be felt. Don’t be fooled by Nagoya’s industrial background either. This may be a city with a huge manufacturing base, but Nagoya offers up a thriving shopping, arts and culture scene too. Some of Japan’s most acclaimed museums can be found here and there are immense galleries devoted to everything from art, history and ancient Japanese armour to science, nature, technology, cars and trains. There is even an extensive aquarium found near the bustling Port of Nagoya.  

Today, Nagoya is one of Japan’s most important economic centres. Located on Japan’s Pacific Coast and benefiting from a large natural harbour, Nagoya has become one of the world’s leading auto manufacturing centres, supplying cars to much of the world market. With its central location, Nagoya has also become a leading air and rail hub. Situated on the Tokaido Shinkansen route, Nagoya is less than a two hour train ride to Tokyo. Travelling west, Kyoto can be reached in as little as 40 minutes while Osaka is just one hour away.

Nagoya Station is one of the world’s largest train stations and is easily recognised from a distance by its two distinct glass towers, both of which rise over 50 floors in the air. A central city stop and transfer location, Nagoya Station is just minutes from the Sakae District where many of the city’s major hotels and shopping areas can be found. From souvenir shops to the city’s largest department stores, Sakae features an endless array of retail outlets, restaurants, and some of Nagoya’s hippest and most popular nightclubs.

Nagoya Castle

Arguably Nagoya’s most significant historic site, Nagoya Castle became the city’s defining landmark after it was built in the early 1600’s. Having suffered great damage during the Second World War, the castle was completely restored in 1959. The castle itself sits imperiously on a large stone base and is bordered by a peaceful moat on two sides. Lovely turrets are placed along several corners of the fortress creating a picturesque view from any area of the park like grounds. Visitors will find lovely gardens filled with everything from cherry blossoms to roses, irises and many other colourful floral species in the spring and summer.
