The charming city of Nagoya is the gateway to Chubu`s mountain region, the birthplace of Toyota, a manufacturing powerhouse. Believe it or not, this wonderful city features fascinating museums, stunning temples and a spectacular castle. There are colorful parks and green spaces found in the beautiful city along with excellent shopping and dining options. Nagoya boasts a strong history and the city is a wonder to explore. As a matter of fact, Nagoya developed as the castle town of the Owari, one of the three branches of the ruling Tokugawa family during the Edo Period. Much of the city, including most of its historic buildings, were destroyed in the air raids of 1945. The Toyota Motor Corporation maintains its headquarters just outside of Nagoya.
