You never say Nagoya is the most boring city in Japan
Hello, this is Saho from J-Kyoto :)
People often say Nagoya is the dullest city in Japan.
I don't deny the activities are quite limited in the central part of Nagoya city but if you take a short excursion around Nagoya city, there are many activities you enjoy.
So I will introduce you some of my recommendable places in Aichi prefecture you can access from Nagoya.
First of all, Tokoname (常滑) city , where famous for ceramics and potteries ,called Tokoname-yaki.Tokoname is located on the west coast of Chita Peninsula in Aichi prefecture.Since ancient times, Tokoname city has prospered as a town famous for its cultivation of Nori and and as a centre for the production of pottery.
When you get to Tokoname, Tokonyan,giant manekineko welcomes you.
Maneki-neko(beckoning cat) is a kind of good luck amulet to bring happiness to the owner and did you know Tokoname city is the home of this Manekineko ?
