Nagoya touristy spots

In my first free weekend in Nagoya, I went to check out some of the tourist spots in the city. Nagoya is not a big tourist destination, so a few days of traveling should suffice.

During the second weekend, when Lin (my friend and classmate) came, we checked out Nagoya castle. Here are some pictures:

Some very interesting graffiti on the outside wall of a building in Osu

Osu Kannon - it's basically a temple

The first weekend was right before the Chinese New Year, and I caught this Chinese New Year celebration in downtown Nagoya. Lots of great food (and authentic Mainland Chinese food!)

Oasis 21 - some UFO-like structure in downtown Nagoya/Sakae

TV Tower - it seems like every big Japanese city has one of these
