There is the Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium in Nagoya. This big aquarium consists of two buildings, the North and the South. The dolphin show is very exciting. We can also see a killer whale. If you want to travel on shoe-string budget, you should go there after five p.m. in summer because you can get the ticket at a 20% discount.

Nagoya castle.

Inuyama castle in Inuyama is a very nice castle. Meiji mura also in Inuyama makes for a fun day trip from Nagoya.

[edit][add listing] Eat

Aichi is famous for its "miso(味噌) culture". Miso is one of Japan's traditional seasonings. (Usually Japanese eat miso as "miso soup". Of course people in Aichi eat miso soup, too.) People spread sweetened miso paste on fried pork, fried shrimp (it’s not tempura), tofu and so on.

Other Aichi specialities worth a try are: Tebasaki - grilled chicken wings with a sweet, mildly spicy glaze and white sesame seeds. Eaten with the fingers, they are a popular and delicious izakaya delicacy.

Tenmusu - a local variety of onigiri, filled with prawn tenpura and a fruity brown sauce.

Kishimen - flat, ribbonlike wheat noodles, usually served cold with a dipping sauce, but sometimes hot in broth.

Aka-miso soup - Red miso soup rather than the standard white miso you get everywhere else in Japan.

Miso katsu - Fried pork cutlet (tonkatsu), but is topped with a miso based sauce.
