About the city

Everybody who wants to learn Japanese in Nagoya must learn something about the city. Nagoya is the center of Japan’s third largest metropolitan area. It is the financial, political, and cultural center of the Pacific Coastal area between Tokyo and Osaka, and the hub of the Chukyo industrial region.

Nagoya is located approximately at the center of the long Japanese archipelago. It is the capital city of the Aichi prefecture. This city features the biggest and most solid transportation facilities around Japan.

It was completely rebuilt after a war drubbing. In the civil war period (the 15th-16th centuries), the Nagoya vicinity was the scene of major battles of feudal lords: Tokugawa and Nabunaga Oda. In the early 17th century, when Tokugawa Shogunate took control over the entire country and incorporated Nagoya into the area under its direct administration, the real development of the area began.

Nagoya, like many provincial capitals, has worked hard in recent decades to develop itself into an international city. This city is currently an overwhelmingly modern city of high-rise buildings, flyovers and multiline highways, more suited to business then sightseeing.

Ironically, the destruction during the World War II hastened the development of Nagoya as a modern city. It is an industrial powerhouse; if measured on its own, its region would rank among the top 20 economies worldwide. The port of Nagoya has handled an average of ¥ 5.7 trillion exports and ¥ 2.1 trillion imports this last years, making it the third largest port in Japan.

None of this marks Nagoya as a top-rank tourist destination, but since you’re likely to pass through, it’s worth a detour for its impressive castle, attractive port, important shrine and temples, urban amusement, and unique and accessible cuisine. People will realize that Nagoya is better than Tokyo or Osaka in many aspects. Nagoya is often called Chukyo (Central Capital) because it is located between the ancient capital, Kyoto (Western Capital), and the modern capital, Tokyo (Eastern Capital). It has always been the focal point for Chubu Region.
