3 days in Nagoya Itinerary

Known nationally as an industrial heartland, Nagoya boasts a far more cosmopolitan and cultural core than its reputation would lead you to believe.

Change things up with these side-trips from Nagoya: Ise (Okageza, Ise Shrine Geku, &more). There's lots more to do: step into the grandiose world of Nagoya Castle, get to know the resident critters at Higashiyama Zoo & Botanical Garden, explore the world behind art at Tokugawa Art Museum, and admire nature's wide array of creatures at Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium.

For more things to do, other places to visit, reviews, and other tourist information, you can read our Nagoya day trip planning site.

In September, plan for daily highs up to 29°C, and evening lows to 24°C.
