Flights to Nagoya
Nagoya, the fourth most populous urban area in Japan, is located on the Pacific Coast of the Chubu region in central Honshu Island. Nagoya is the capital of the Aichi Prefecture, and is a major port alongside that of Osaka, Tokyo, Yokohama and others. Though the metropolitan area had a staggering population of 8.74 million in 2000, the city itself has a lower population of 2,235,000 as of 2008. In 1610, Tokugawa Ieyasu moved the capital of the Owari Province from the city of Kiyosu to present-day Nagoya-- a seven kilometer trip, to its more strategic location. Nagoya Castle was built partially from materials from Kiyosu Castle, along with the relocation of about 60,000 people-- even temples and shrines. Not far away, the ancient Atsuta Shrine was used as a way-station on the important Tokaido, which linked the two capitals of Kyoto and Edo (now Tokyo). The town developed and thrived as a place of support for travelers. In the years to come Nagoya would become an industrial hub for the region, with the famous pottery towns of Tokoname, Tajimi and Seto. Okazaki, another neighboring town was the only place where gunpowder was produced under the shogunate. Its other industries included cotton, and the production of complex 'mechanical' dolls, called karakuri ningyo.
The two most prominent sights to see in Nagoya are those that helped the town flourish in its earliest of times: Nagoya Castle, and Atsuta Shrine. Nagoya Castle, built in 1612, was partially burned in World War II and restored in the late-fifties-- adding more modern features, such as elevators. Behold the two breathtaking Golden Orca on the structure's roof which are often referred to as the symbol of Nagoya. The Atsuta Shrine is known as the second-most vulnerable ancient shrine in Japan. The Atsuta Shrine is believed to be home to the famed Kusanagi sword, which is one of the three imperial regalia of Japan. Its grounds are host to roughly 70 festivals per year, with many visitors still flocking in non-festival times. Uniquely enough, the shrine also holds over 4,400 national treasures that represent its 2,000 year history.
