Nagoya Castle Located at the Subway City Hall Station, it is ranked as one of the three most famous cities in Japan. The five-story, five-level building with one underground floor has two "Golden Eagles" decorated on the roof. Due to aging and the earthquake resistance of the building, entry is closed. The famous ancient house castle below is also very spectacular! 2. Jinzhi Hengding: Zongchun District, Yizhi District Kinshaki Yokocho is divided into two areas. "Yishinao Area" has many Nagoya delicacies; "Muneharu Area" has many cafes and restaurants. When you come to Nagoya Castle, it’s a good time to sit down and eat at a restaurant here. 3. Osu Kannon, Osu Shopping Street Located at Osu Kannon Station on the subway, Osu Kannon, Asakusa Kannon in Tokyo, and Tsukannon in Mie are known as the "three major Kannons in Japan". There are many pigeons who are not afraid of people in the square in front. It occupies a vast area and is very popular. Next to it is the shopping street, which is very large and crowded with people. It has a history of more than 400 years. It is also known as Japan's three major electrical appliance streets along with Akihabara in Tokyo and Nihonbashi in Osaka. In addition to food, there are also daily groceries, drugstores, and cosmetics. Electrical appliances, clothing, second-hand stores, etc. 4. Atsuta Shrine Subway Jingu Nishi Station, together with "Kyoto City Heian Jingu Shrine" and "Mie Prefecture Ise Jingu Shrine", is called the three major shrines in Japan. It is divided into east, south and west gates. It is a ten-minute walk from the subway station and passes through the torii gate. Then there is the gravel road, which leads to the Atsuta Shrine. There are many people worshiping, and everyone keeps quiet. It is really a very quiet environment. 【Food】 1. Yamamotoya Sumotoke I ate at Kinshiro Yokocho, a famous miso udon restaurant in Nagoya. It is cooked in a traditional Japanese pot. When serving the dish, the clerk said that it needs to be covered for about 3 to 8 minutes before eating. The purpose of simmering with the lid on is to let the oolong cook. The noodles are cooked soft naturally, and I think the soup is very rich. I personally prefer softer noodles, but the udon noodles have a harder texture, so it tastes okay. It costs NT$430. 2. Nagoya Toto River Estuary I ate at Kinshi Yokocho. When I passed by the door, I saw ice cream and I really wanted to eat it, so I bought a tofu ice cream. Although there is sunshine in Nagoya at the end of October, it is very cold to eat ice cream in the slightly cold sun. The tofu ice cream is so delicious. It was delicious. I still miss this ice cream. It costs about NT$110. 3. Taifukuchaan I ate at Osu Shopping Street and had a taiyaki, which was covered with dense red beans. It was delicious and very hot. It cost 194 yen a piece, and the queue kept coming.
