Map of Japan-Aichi

Been to Nagoya?

I’ve been living in Japan for 23 years but I been to Nagoya just once. I’ve passed through Nagoya several time on my way to Tokyo, but never got off at Nagoya. Nagoya is third biggest city in Japan.

Nagoya girls and Kobe girls are rivals. They are know for girls of own fashion. Nagoya girls has Nagoya style curled hair, and Kobe girls has Kobe style curls in her hair. What’s the difference? They look the same third persons eye.

From Japanese people, Nagoya is considered a city of Toyota. It is taken as the city flourished by the success of Toyota.

People of Nagoya thinks they are the center of Japan. While people except Nayoya, Aichi don’t. People of Nagoya thinks their culture are on Tokyo side not Osaka. Nagoya people hate Osaka. People of east tend to heat Oska. People of west tend to love Osaka.
