Things to do in Tsuruma Park

Our experience with VASARA Kimono Rental in Nagoya was exceptional. While this location had fewer yukata choices than I expected, the staff more than made up for it with their kindness, enthusiasm, and genuine care. I hoped to wear a red yukata to match my wife’s, but none were available. The staff went above and beyond, searching through unopened boxes until they found a maroon yukata with dragon designs. They paired it with a blue obi featuring a water pattern. They also dressed my wife and daughter beautifully, and transformed my son into a young samurai. Seeing our whole family dressed together was a highlight of our trip. Walking through Nagoya and visiting Nagoya Castle in yukata felt immersive and special. We received many friendly compliments and interactions along the way. The VASARA team didn’t just rent us clothing, they created a wonderful family memory we will cherish for years. Minasama, taihen osewa ni narimashita. Arigatō gozaimashita. Dōzo ogenki de.

Highly recommended this experience. it’s an hour for the sweets making and 20-30mins for the matcha tea ceremony. Our teacher was lovely and gave good clear instructions on what we had to do. Both my boys 12y and 13y really enjoyed it and found the sweets to taste good. Thankyou for the great memories.

We happened to visit during a Japanese long weekend, so the zoo was incredibly crowded... it was a bit overwhelming, and combined with the hot weather, it was tough at first. However, we saw many animals we'd never seen before. Even though it was hot, we were lucky to catch the summer event, so the zoo was open until 8 PM, which made it quite worthwhile. The staff who lent us a wheelchair were very friendly, and it was free! We got to see all the animals we wanted, but it felt really strange to see polar bears in such hot weather!

Easily book your tickets with Klook and enter without waiting. Nagoya Castle has a completely different feel from Osaka Castle. Above all, I loved the scent of wood inside the building, and the elaborate patterns and paintings in each room were impressive. The staff were also very kind, which made the visit enjoyable. If you're visiting Nagoya, you should definitely go to Nagoya Castle. Klook states that the adult admission fee will increase from 500 yen to 1,000 yen starting October 1st.

A bird eye's view of Nagoya, especially area around the Nagoya Station and even Nagoya Castle. On days of good visibility, you can see a mountain or a few. I can see Mt. Ibuki during sunset. Visit on weekday for cheaper entry. Redemption is easy as the staff is readily available to help. Depending on your pace and interest, you can spend 10mins or even 2 hours here. There are seats around, drink vending machines and it is semi outdoor. My discomfort is the bbq smoke and smell from the open air restaurant.

The experience was very enjoyable! The lady leading the activity was very patient and translated into English for Europeans like us. By the end of the activity, everyone had successfully made the confections thanks to her explanations.

great communication with company. They were very flexible with the location of my choosing. Takeda-san was wonderful to work with! He was very knowledgeable and guided me through posing, which made the shoot feel easy and natural. I love all the photos—he truly brought my vision to life and exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend! experience: location:

If you enjoy taking photos, you might want to choose just one location, otherwise you'll feel rushed. Alternatively, I'd suggest staying overnight. Our driver was excellent; she drove very smoothly and was extremely polite. A six-hour round trip (three hours each way) must have been tiring for her. I highly recommend visiting Shirakawa-go in both summer and winter; it's truly beautiful.

The content is quite rich, and it would be even better if there were more multilingual guides. In addition to swords, the armor collection is also worth seeing. There are not many interactive facilities inside, so if you are not interested in history or weapons, you might want to skip it.
