Nagoya Castle

Japan, 460-0031 1-1 Honmaru, Naka-ku, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture

Nagoya Castle, a tourist attraction in Nagoya, is famous for the golden shachihoko (a lion) on the roof of the castle tower. The castle was built by Tokugawa Ieyasu at the command of Toyotomi daimyo and served as the residence of the Owari Tokugawa clan for approximately 260 years. In spring, the approximately 900 cherry trees on the grounds come into full bloom, making it a highly popular cherry blossom viewing spot. The view of the castle tower, said to be one of the largest in Japan, and the cherry blossoms in full bloom is a spectacular sight that truly evokes the beauty of Japan.
