Here in Nagoya and Aichi, there are plenty of opportunities to experience some of these unique and traditional crafts, not just by visiting museums but by joining workshops where you can make items yourself to take home as authentic souvenirs.⠀ ⠀ Each area of Nagoya and Aichi Prefecture has its own crafts that relate to the long history of each place. ⠀ Takahama is a famous city in Aichi for its ceramic roof tile industry. There is an Onigawara, ornamental tile with a demon face, a walking path around the city where you can find different types of Onigawara, and even an Onigawara Museum.⠀ You can even try the Onigawara making experience that Iwatsuki Onigawara studio offers.Book here: https://www.garock.info/ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍: Takahama, Aichi⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📆: July⠀ 📷: IG @ellpcreative⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ©️2021⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nagoyaisnotboring #nagoya #aichi #japan #japon #GF_japan #jp_gallery #ig_japan #icu_japan #team_jp #bestjapanpics #ptk_japan #wu_japan #Lovers_Nippon #japan_daytime_view #bns_japan #team_愛知 #team_jp_西 #igersjp #gaijinpottravel #japanigram #explorejapan #japantrip #onigawara #demon #demonface #tile #pottery #potterybarn #potterylove

Dinner at Nikko Style Nagoya. We had a delicious Japanese-French fusion style dinner at Style Kitchen. You should try it when visiting Nagoya.

While the area around Nagoya played an essential role during the Warring States Period (1467-1603) and the Edo Period (1603-1868), its more recent history is equally fascinating.⠀ ⠀ By visiting Nagoya's Cultural Path, you can learn more about this recent history and culture by looking at the architecture of buildings and recollection of the lives of their famous inhabitants.⠀ ⠀ While Nagoya Cultural's Path (Bunka no Michi) was home to the middle and lower class Samurai during the Edo Period, from the Meiji Period (1868-1912) to the early Showa Period (1926-1989), this area was home to entrepreneurs, missionaries, journalists, and artists.⠀ ⠀ Many of the old residences have been turned into museums for visitors to enjoy a glimpse into the lavish life of the rich and famous.⠀ ⠀ One of these residences is Futaba Museum.⠀ This used to be the home of Japan's first actress and former Geisha Sadayakko Kawakami and Momosuke Fukuzawa, a power station pioneer and tycoon. The building was built in 1920. ⠀ Regular events and music concerts are held at the museum that is nowadays designated as a cultural property.⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📆: July⠀⠀ 📸: @ellpcreative⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ©️2021⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nagoyaisnotboring #nagoya #aichi #japan #japon #myepictrips #worldheritage #gdayjapan #visitjapan #descubrejapon #myownpersonaljapan #gaijinpottravel #visualambassadors #pashadelic #jordhammondsundays #lovers_nippon #japantourism #streetlights #streetphotographyjapan #discoverjapan #bestphoto_japan #japangram #journeythroughjapan #explorejapan #gooddesign #arquitechture #gooddesignisforever #history #moderndesign #legacy

Shiro Noir is the name of the specialty dessert at popular local coffeehouse chain Komeda's Coffee.⠀ ⠀ The name translates to white (Shiro in Japanese) and black (Noir in French) and describes a Danish pastry (supposed to represent the "black" in the name) topped with soft-serve ice cream (it represents the "white" in the name).⠀ ⠀ Komeda’s Coffee offers many limited editions of Shiro Noir throughout the year and I (Lena) love to try these seasonal flavors whenever I have the chance. These include Matcha, Azuki red bean paste, chocolate, melon, strawberry, pudding, sweet potato, and countless more. My recent favorite was a dark chocolate Shiro Noir. It's soooo yummy!! 😋😋😋😋⠀ ⠀ And, a Shiro Noir comes in two different sizes: mini (550 yen) and regular (750 yen).⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍: Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📆: July⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ©️2021⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nagoyaisnotboring #nagoya #aichi #japan #japon #GF_japan #jp_gallery #ig_japan #icu_japan #team_jp #bestjapanpics #ptk_japan #wu_japan #Lovers_Nippon #japan_daytime_view #bns_japan #igersjp #gaijinpottravel #japanigram #explorejapan #japantrip #japanculture #localfood #yummy #foodporn #sweets #japanesesweets #nagoyafood #yummysweets #funny

Nagoya is holding July the Grand Summer Sumo Tournament. Today is the 14th day of the 15 days that last the Sumo Tournament. ⠀ Last year Nagoya Sumo Tournament was canceled due to CoronaVirus, but this year I (Elly) got tickets for the 9th day and I went with Lena. It has been two years since the last time that I (Elly) saw a live Grand Sumo Tournament. For Lena was the first time, so I explained all the things she needed to know about this unique sport. She enjoyed herself like a kid. ^^⠀ ⠀ If you want to know about Sumo go to our website and check the latest article we released about.⠀ https://www.nagoyaisnotboring.com/grand-sumo-tournament-in-nagoya/⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📆: July⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📷: IG @ellpcreative⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2021⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nagoyaisnotboring #nagoya #aichi #japan #japon #gdayjapan #visitjapan #descubrejapon #myownpersonaljapan #visualambassadors #pashadelic #jordhammondsundays #lovers_nippon #japantourism #discoverjapan #bestphoto_japan #japangram #journeythroughjapan #japantour #allstartour #sumo #sumowrestling #wrestling #wrestler #fight #sports #sumosquats #sumowrestler #bigmen #japanhistory

Horaisen, established in 1864, is an old brewery located in Shitara (Toyota), well-known for producing high-quality Sake. They are producing Nihonshu (Sake) and other alcoholic drinks like Shochu, vodka, and liqueurs. ⠀ ⠀ At the end of April, we joined one of their regular Sake Making Experiences for half a day. We started by cooling down the steamed rice and later added it to the fermented mixture made of water, Koji rice (moldy rice), steamed rice already added on previous days. It really was an unforgettable experience for any lover of Sake! Elly's happy face was also unforgettable 😂⠀ ⠀ If you are interested in joining one of these experiences, please message us on Facebook or Instagram, and we can arrange this once-in-a-lifetime experience for you.⠀ ⠀ Our top 3 recommended Sake from Horaisen are Gin (aged Sake with an intense rice flavor), Ku (Sake with a mellow, fruity aroma, and sweet and light rice flavor), and Bi (Sake with a beautifully sweet and mild flavor). ⠀ Bi is great for beginners to try Sake for the very first time.⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍: Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📆: July⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📷: IG @ellpcreative⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2021⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nagoyaisnotboring #nagoya #aichi #japan #japon #gdayjapan #visitjapan #descubrejapon #myownpersonaljapan #visualambassadors #pashadelic #jordhammondsundays #lovers_nippon #japantourism #discoverjapan #bestphoto_japan #japangram #journeythroughjapan #japantour #allstartour #takeafoodtour #foodlovingtravelers #foodtourz #makedeliciousmemories #flavorsofjapan #nihonshu #sake #japanesesake #sakekampai #sakestagram

Ikebana is the ancient art of flower arrangement.

Ikebana is the ancient art of flower arrangement. 🌸 🏵️ 🌺⠀ ⠀ While it can be traced back to Buddhist priests from China offering flowers at the alters of important deities, the current form of Ikebana developed some 500 years ago in the courts of Kyoto, where it was a popular pastime of the nobility.⠀ ⠀ Ikebana used to be practiced mainly by men, but nowadays, many of the top Ikebana masters of the different schools in Japan are female. Flower arrangement is also no longer reserved only for the elites; anyone interested can learn this traditional Japanese art.⠀ ⠀ If you would like to try your hand at Ikebana, you can book a private lesson with a certified Ikebana instructor. After a demonstration and an excellent explanation in English, you will be able to create a beautiful flower arrangement in a shallow vase using seasonal flowers and leaves. 💐⠀ ⠀ Also included in the experience is a visit to Arimatsu, an old town along the Tokaido (the old road connecting Kyoto and Tokyo) with beautiful townhouses and fascinating history of tie-dying fabrics.⠀ ⠀ Bookings by clicking the link in our bio.⠀ https://www.nagoyaisnotboring.com/tour/ikebana-lesson-and-arimatsu-town-visit/⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍: Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📆: July⠀ 📷: IG @ellpcreative⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ©️2021⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nagoyaisnotboring#nagoya #aichi #japan #japon #aichiprefecture #myepictrips #bestaichipics #bestjapanpics #getaways #tripofalifetime #wanttogoback #discoveraround #travellinggram #lovefortravel #greatexperience #lovetravelling #beautifulcountry #japanigram #explorejapan #japantour #japantrip #pics_jp #japaneseculture #nipponpic #love_bestjapan #japan_of_insta #japanesefan #ikebana #flower

I (Lena) have a personal connection to the city of Tokai, just south of Nagoya: my husband was born there, and I visit often.⠀ ⠀ My number one recommendation is Shurakuen, a spacious park with an impressive bronze great Buddha statue. The park is especially popular during the autumn foliage in late November to early December. In fact, it is known as one of the top spots in Aichi!⠀ Don't miss the tea house Oumei-an, where they serve a Matcha tea set in a beautiful traditional setting.⠀ ⠀ Tokai is mainly an industrial city, and that's why you can visit many interesting factories there including Coca-Cola, Aichi Steel, and Kagome (a juice and condiment producer). This is not only fun for children but grown-ups as well!⠀ ⠀ The best time to visit Tokai is during one of the two float festivals: ⠀ Owari Yokosuka Festival and Ota Festival⠀ Held on the first Sunday of September and the first Sunday of October, and it's a colorful spectacle with beautifully decorated wooden festival floats, music, and strong men and boys pulling and pushing the heavy floats through the city.⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍: Tokai City, Aichi Prefecture⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📆: July⠀⠀⠀ 📸: @ellpcreative⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ©️2021⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nagoyaisnotboring #nagoya #aichi #japan #japon #myepictrips #worldheritage #gdayjapan #visitjapan #descubrejapon #myownpersonaljapan #gaijinpottravel #visualambassadors #pashadelic #jordhammondsundays #lovers_nippon #japantourism #streetlights #streetphotographyjapan #discoverjapan #bestphoto_japan #japangram #journeythroughjapan #explorejapan #buddha #buddhastatue #kamakura #kamakurajapan #japanoninsta #travelblogger

Do you all know Sukiyaki?⠀ ⠀ It's a typical hot pot dish where slices of beef and fresh vegetables are simmered in soy sauce and sugar seasoning. ⠀ ⠀ The controversial part with foreigners: Before you eat each bite, you dip the cooked meat and vegetables in a beaten raw egg.⠀ If you can't get yourself to try the raw egg, don't worry; it's also delicious without.⠀ ⠀ A special type of Sukiyaki is available in Nagoya, called Hikizuri Nabe, made using chicken rather than beef.⠀ And in most cases, it's not just your everyday chicken, but rather a special local breed of chicken called Nagoya Cochin said to have superior meat and eggs.⠀ ⠀ You can find Hikizuri Nabe at many high-end restaurants specialized in Nagoya Cochin.⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍: Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📆: July⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ©️2021⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nagoyaisnotboring #nagoya #aichi #japan #japon #GF_japan #jp_gallery #ig_japan #icu_japan #team_jp #bestjapanpics #ptk_japan #wu_japan #Lovers_Nippon #japan_daytime_view #bns_japan #team_愛知 #team_jp_西 #igersjp #gaijinpottravel #japanigram #explorejapan #japantrip #japanculture #localfood #yummy #foodporn #shabushabu #meat

Rather than explaining what a tea ceremony is, it is much easier to have you experience it for yourself. You don’t even need to travel to Japan to participate in an authentic tea ceremony. You can do it online, from anywhere in the world.⠀ ⠀ The Online “Table Style Sado” Tea Ceremony Experience is an easy introduction to the Art of Tea.⠀ ⠀ Connect with your tea ceremony Sensei online, learn about the connection of Zen, Japanese calligraphy, confections, flower arrangement, and tea ceremony. View the tea-making demonstration, and then try brewing the perfect cup of Matcha tea at home following the instructions of your teacher.⠀ ⠀ At the end of this 1-hour experience, you will really understand what a tea ceremony is, what makes it so unique, the important elements of a tea ceremony, and useful tips on how to make delicious Matcha tea at home.⠀ ⠀ You can book your online tea ceremony here, to make your every day into a special occasion.⠀ Click the link in the bio for booking and further details.⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍: Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📆: July⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ©️2021⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •••⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nagoyaisnotboring#nagoya #aichi #japan #japon #aichiprefecture #myepictrips #bestaichipics #bestjapanpics #getaways #tripofalifetime #wanttogoback #discoveraround #travellinggram #lovefortravel #greatexperience #lovetravelling #beautifulcountry #japanigram #explorejapan #japantour #japantrip #pics_jp #japaneseculture #nipponpic #love_bestjapan #japan_of_insta #japanesefan #tea #greentea
