    Aichi Pref. Nagoyashi Naka-ku Osu 2-21-47
    Located in the Osu district of Nagoya City’s Naka Ward, this temple belonging to the Shingon Chisan sect is said to be one of Japan’s three hallowed grounds of Kannon, the deity of mercy. It is also well-known under the name Osu-Kannon. The temple was constructed as Shinpuku-ji in 1333 in what is now Gifu Prefecture’s Hashima City, and was moved to its present site in 1612. The vermillion hondo (main temple) is a symbol of Osu and is known as the “Osu Bunko” (library) for its collection of some 15,000 old books including Japan’s oldest manuscript of the “Kojiki” (Records of Ancient Matters), a National Treasure, and the “Shomonki” (The Chronicle of Masakado), which is an Important Cultural Property.

    Located at osukannon station & just right beside osu shopping street! Glad & surprise to see cherry blossom still in bloom in the temple as cherry blossom started earlier this year. Good to drop by...

    Aichi Pref. Nagoyashi Naka-ku Osu 3-6-18
    A long standing restaurant dedicated to miso katsu cutlets, a Nagoya specialty. Since Yabaton was founded in 1947, it has continued to use only select ingredients and the same favorite recipes. Yabaton uses high quality pork with a focus on pork from southern Kyushu. The restaurant’s secret miso sauce is carefully prepared with soybean miso naturally fermented for a year and a half. Yabaton also takes care to keep the frying oil from getting too heavy and causing upset stomachs. In addition to eating in, the restaurant also sells popular take-home bento box lunches and tenderloin cutlet sandwiches. Yabaton also sells merchandise featuring the restaurant’s mascot, Bu-chan.

    It is a chain and there are several restaurants in Nagoya; they propose few options with fried pork (tonkatsu) with their special miso sauce. The combo is great! I recommend the fillet and also the...

    This Taiwanese restaurant in the Osu district of Naka Ward in Aichi Prefecture's Nagoya City has its honten or main branch in Imaike. The restaurant is the originator of Nagoya's famous Taiwan ramen, a tori-gara (chicken bone) soup base topped full of stir-fried ground meat, garlic chives and chili pepper, and is bustling with tourists as well as regular customers who like spicy food. Coming here with friends or as a couple, gathering around the round tables, and wiping sweat from your brow as you eat is the real charm of this place. Chicken wings covered in secret sauce is one popular menu item.

    The spicy ramen are amazing. These ramen are really really hot. So nothing for people who aren’t used to spicy food. You can of course order less spicy food, but I recommend the hot ones. Amazing...

Aichi Areas

Aichi is a prefecture of great natural beauty with Nagoya city at its heart, a busy hub home to a labyrinth of underground shops and the 17th-century Nagoya Castle. Castles are easy to find in this history-rich prefecture, but the highlight for history buffs has to be the Museum Meiji-mura, where preserved buildings from the turn of the 20th century are displayed in all their grandeur in an outdoor museum.
