Nagoya Castle (Nagoya) “Kodaman’s J-TRIP”

Before going to eat Hitsumabushi(Unagi don), I went to Nagoya castle. It was the end of November, “kouyou”was very beautiful and colorful. This castle is the one of the three greatest castles in Japan(others are Oosaka and Kumamoto castle).nagoya castlenagoya castle2
[History]It’s said that this castle was built in 1525. Around this castle, there was used to be Nagoya castle(Same sound but different Kanji) where “Oda Nobunaga” was born. For tourists, two tiger-heads fishes on the top of the castle are good points to check out. There is much information on wikipedia .[Accsess]Pleass take “Higashiyama-Line( go to Fujigaoka)” then changed to “Meijyo-Line” form “Higashiyama-line” at Sakae station. Finally get off at “Shiyakusho station”. It must take less than 20 min from Nagoya station to Nagoya castle.
[Fee] ¥500
Because we had couple of time to spend before eating “Hitsumabushi” in “Horai ken”(most of time needing reservation ), we dicided to go to here. It took 20 min from “Hourai-ken” by car. There is a huge park a lot around Nagoya castle. The photo below was a  kind of joke but it’s the good memory for our family. (There are a lot of places in which we can take this kind of photo in JAPAN) Now, we are interested in collecting these kind of photos in trip.
