This one-day course centers on the opening day (August 8, 2026) of the Nagoya Castle Summer Festival, held at Nagoya's symbol, Nagoya Castle. During the day, visit the Taisho-era Western building Nagoya City Archives (名古屋市市政資料館) and the small Nagono Shrine (那古野神社), take a break in the lush grounds of Aichi Gokoku Shrine (愛知県護国神社), and stroll through Tokugawaen (徳川園), known for its beautiful scenery in every season. At 17:00, it's finally time for the Nagoya Castle venue. Enjoy dinner at the food area, Shachi Shokudo (鯱食堂), and spend a summer evening watching the golden shachihoko-topped keep light up. Touring historic buildings and greenery along the way, this course lets you fully savor a quintessentially Nagoya summer day.
