Two must-see attractions in Nagoya!

Hey, travel experts! I recently visited Nagoya, and it was an amazing experience. Today, I can't wait to share my travel tips for Nagoya Castle and Atsuta Shrine with you. These are my personal experiences, and I hope they help you have a great time in Nagoya! Let's start with Nagoya Castle. As one of Japan's three most famous castles, it's a must-see. The transportation is very convenient. If you're driving, there's a parking lot, and you can also get there easily by bus. You can buy tickets at the entrance, and you'll see many foreign tourists there. It's a very popular spot. I visited on July 28, and it was scorching hot. Unfortunately, the main keep was closed, but don't worry, the free Honmaru Palace next door is definitely worth a visit. You'll need to take off your shoes to enter. It can be a bit stuffy in the summer, but when you see the exquisite screens and murals, you'll feel it's all worth it. The rooms have different purposes, and the beautiful murals seem to tell stories of the past. You can take photos, and by following the tour route, you'll see all the beautiful sights. Also, don't miss the golden male and female fish on the roof of the main keep. If you miss seeing them in person, buying some related souvenirs to take home is a great idea. Now, let's talk about Atsuta Shrine. It's much cooler here, and the atmosphere is very serene. I happened to visit the Kusanagi Sword Museum and the Treasure Museum. Remember, photography is not allowed inside. The museum displays many divine swords, which I think would be particularly interesting to guys. After the visit, I enjoyed an ice cream nearby, and it was a delightful treat that instantly refreshed me. In conclusion, these two attractions in Nagoya each have their own charm. Nagoya Castle is rich in history, while Atsuta Shrine exudes a unique mystique. When you visit, take your time to soak in the atmosphere, and I'm sure you'll have an unforgettable travel experience!
