While domestic and international travel is restricted due to the COVID-19, outings in nearby areas are attracting attention. So, this time, we decided to “rediscover Nagoya again!”
People who think "Nagoya has nothing to do", "Nagoya is boring", and "Nagoya is only fun for gourmet". No way! There are many attractive spots in Nagoya.
Endoji /Shikemichi area
"Endoji Shopping Street" retains the atmosphere of a downtown area, even though it is located close to Nagoya Station. This shopping street consists of three shopping streets, Endoji, Endoji Honmachi, and Endoji, and stretches over 1km from east to west.
At one point, it was on the decline along with Shikemichi, but now there are many attractive restaurants such as long-established coffee shops that have been in business for over 80 years, as well as Spanish, Italian, and French cuisines.
There are also Nagoya-ben Mikuji and historical sites. The area is also recommended for walking. The shopping street also has an arcade, so it's perfect even on rainy days.
