Some spectacular buildings in Nagoya

Modern Skyscrapers Nagoya Japan

Modern Skyscrapers Nagoya Japan are scattered all around the main railway station. Located between Tokyo & Kyoto Nagoya is worth spending a couple of days sightseeing, It rained the 2 days I was there in June 2018, however the sun finally came out the day I was leaving for Kyoto on the Shinkansen.

The circular buildings were completed in 1999, the JR Central Towers rise elegantly above Nagoya Station. The building consists of the 245 meter tall Office Tower and the slightly shorter and slimmer Hotel Tower.

Mode Gakuen Spiral Towers

The building is home to three vocational schools: Nagoya Mode Gakuen, HAL Nagoya and Nagoya Isen.

Time for some lunch

A roast beef wrap & a creme puff. 🙂

Restaurants near my hotel.

My hotel was in an excellent location, close to restaurants & bars & 10 minute walk to the station. For a very good room rate at Kuretake Inn Premium Shizuoka just book through THIS LINK.

Yakitori is my favourite cuisine in Japan.

Absolutely delicious food.

One of the joys of travelling in this great country.
