The people in Nagoya are so polite, well all Japanese are polite and friendly. I think its' their culture and upbringing, compare to our modern society, a hell lots of difference if you get what I mean. Loved the weather, cold and windy. How can I not fall in love with a city of four seasons. For fridge magnets collectors like me, I tell you its' impossible to get one there as no shopping areas sells that.
My first time into the shrine temple of Nagoya was unexpected. An accidental discovery with Charles as we were walking towards the shopping Parco area to hunt for my fridge magnet. Wishes board was the first thing we did. There stood a castle of Nagoya north west of the temple, not that I could see it but in accordance to the map. Too bad under time restriction, I can't go over but never the less I will put it on my next trip I guess. Beautiful is the word I describe.

Beautiful and quiet place to visit. A must go destination for travellers. Of course, slightly expensive but affordable for food and shopping. Ratings as below:
