Japan's fourth-largest city sits halfway between Tokyo and Kyoto and is often skipped by visitors, which is their loss. Strong industrial identity (Toyota's headquarters are nearby), excellent food culture, and a distinctive dialect. The Nagoya basho moved to the brand-new IG Arena in 2025 - it replaces the long-time home, the Aichi Prefectural Gymnasium adjacent to Nagoya Castle. July sumo is brutally humid; the building's air-conditioning is non-negotiable.
Near the arena
Nagoya Castle↗ - Reconstructed keep with golden shachihoko on the roof. Interior reconstruction ongoing. ▾ Atsuta Shrine↗ - One of Shintō's holiest sites - traditionally home to the legendary Kusanagi sword. ▾ Sakae district↗ - Shopping, nightlife, and the iconic Mirai Tower in Hisaya-Ōdōri Park. ▾ Local specialties
Hitsumabushi↗ ひつまぶし - Grilled eel over rice, eaten three ways: plain, with garnishes, then as ochazuke. ▾ Miso katsu↗ 味噌カツ - Pork cutlet drowned in dark Aichi red-miso sauce. Polarising but defining. ▾ Tebasaki ↗ 手羽先 - Sweet-spicy fried chicken wings, a Nagoya invention (Sekai-no-Yamachan is the chain to try). Kishimen↗ きしめん - Flat, wide udon noodles - a Nagoya speciality. ▾ Ankake spaghetti↗ あんかけスパゲッティ - Thick, peppery starch-based sauce over spaghetti. Unique to Nagoya. ▾ Getting there: Subway to Shiyakusho Station (Meijō line) - the new IG Arena is a short walk. Bring a portable fan in July.
