This is a classic Japanese garden with an authentic feel. The cherry blossoms in spring make it a great spot to visit.

Takajo Kannon Ike Park
Covering a sprawling area of 63 hectares, equivalent to approximately 13 Tokyo Domes, this large-scale leisure spot features numerous plazas, playgrounds, pools, a Ferris wheel, hot spring facilities, and even accommodation facilities. The hot spring facility "Kannon Sakura no Sato" offers both Japanese and Western-style baths, alternating between men and women on a daily basis. Each indoor bath features various types of tubs, including alpha ion baths, saunas, open-air baths, and electric baths, providing a relaxing experience.
The park is huge! The lakeside trail is really comfortable—walking around here is so relaxing.

Naruko Onsenkyo
Naruko Onsenkyo consists of five areas: Naruko, Higashi-Naruko, Kawatabi, Nakayamadaira, and Onikobe. There is a record in the "Shoku Nihon Koki (Later Chronicle of Japan )" that the hot springs gushed out due to a volcanic eruption in 837. Naruko Onsenkyo is characterized by its unique hot springs. It is known as one of the best hot spring resorts in Japan with seven of the ten types of hot spring qualities (according to the Ministry of the Environment's "The ABCs for the Safe and Secure Use of Onsen”).
Stopped by Naruko Gorge for the autumn leaves and enjoyed a hot spring soak while I was there.

Chubu Electric Power MIRAI TOWER
The tower is Nagoya’s symbol, built as Nagoya TV Tower for tourism and TV broadcast and completed in 1954. In 2011, TV signals were switched from analog to digital and its function as a consolidated radio tower was ended.
This is the most iconic landmark in downtown Nagoya. From the 90-meter-high observation deck, you get a clear view of the city.
