How to get to Nagoya Castle



About Nagoya Castle

Nagoya Castle is the symbol of Nagoya and the first stop for travellers arriving in the city. The castle was built in 1612 and it is surrounded by a large park with small tea rooms and traditional Japanese gardens. The most distinctive feature of the castle is the two golden dolphins that adorn the eaves. The castle was burned down in World War II and rebuilt in 1959. It is now a museum of works of art. In spring more than 2,000 cherry trees are in full bloom and the trees are lush. This is when Nagoya Castle is at its most beautiful.
