Day 3 ~ NAGOYA CITY

DAY 3 is about Nagoya City. 

For this leg our tour, we took advantage of the Nagoya railway system.

We started the day early to our first destination the SCMaglev Railway Park via Aonami Line (which is the line going to Legoland). 

But first we needed a hearty breakfast to kick start our day!  Breakfast is at Pronto Cafe at the Nagoya Station.


SCMaglev Railway Park is a must for train enthusiasts.  It is located about 20-30 minutes from Nagoya Station and is convenient walk from the Kinjo-futo Station (via the Aonami Line) and is located right across Legoland.  

Entrance cost Y1000/adult. You pay extra for the train simulators.  We skipped the train simulators as the next available time is early afternoon and it was just 10am.




We spent about 1 1/2 hours here, but train lovers should alot at least half a day.  The dioramas were especially nice to look at.  

We left the train museum at 1130am to head to our next order of business ~ Lunch   

Lunch was at Vegetable Cafe and Seafood Bar Cafe Saien, the restaurant is just outside of the Nagoya Castle, which is next in our itinerary.

Everything we ordered was spot on.  







The Nagoya Castle, Japan's first castle to be designated as a National Historic Site.






Don't miss the Honmaru Palace, a 17th-century palace with hinoki cypress wood and decorative metal fittings and fine arts adoring its walls are truly impressive.



From Nagoya Castle, we went to explore Ossu Kanon Shopping Arcade a bit, however, we were too tired from all our morning walking.  I wasn't in the mood to buy anything.

Day 3 Nagoya, ends here.
