Port Of Nagoya Public Aquarium
North hall: A 3.5-billion-year journey Animals return to the ocean Approximately 3.5 billion years ago, single-celled organisms emerged in the oceans, becoming the earliest life forms on Earth. Countless species evolved along their own paths, with some migrating to land and evolving into giant dinosaurs that once dominated the terrestrial realm. However, they eventually became extinct. Later, mammals dominated the land. Around 50 million years ago, some mammals returned to the ocean, their natural habitat. These animals evolved into modern whales. To adapt to underwater life, they developed streamlined bodies, forming the graceful shapes we see today. This exhibition will chronologically guide visitors into the world of cetaceans. These marine creatures have adapted to underwater life, developing remarkable intelligence, and are said to hold a terrestrial status comparable to humans. South hall: Journey to Antarctica Global journey, encountering diverse life across the five oceans The vast ocean covers approx. 70% of the earth's surface, featuring diverse temperatures and climates that enable organisms to adapt to various environments and continuously evolve. In the south pavilion, you can retrace the route of the Antarctic research vessel "Fuji" docked at Nagoya port garden pier, and observe creatures living in different water zones including the "Sea of Japan", "Deep sea exhibition hall", "Equatorial waters", "Australian waters", and "Antarctic waters".

There are many interesting rides. Many restaurants in the theme park as well. It is easy to get to with subway. If there is a thing that needs to improve is that some shows need to have English subtitles.

This Toyota Automobile Museum displays many brands of cars. I thought it wouldn't be very exciting, but I was shocked when I went to the second floor exhibition hall.
It only takes more than 20 minutes to drive from Nagoya to this exhibition hall. This is a place worth visiting.
When visiting exhibitions in Japan, you can enter and exit many times with the ticket for the day, which is very good.

Atsuta Jingu is a very famous shrine in Nagoya, with a long history and rich cultural atmosphere. The entire shrine is located in a dense forest, and walking through it feels like being in the tranquility of nature. The main hall is solemn and majestic, and many tourists and locals come to worship and pray, especially during the New Year or important festivals. The shrine enshrines the Kusanagi sword, one of the three major artifacts of Japan, so it has important religious significance. There are also beautiful ponds, torii and ancient trees in the courtyard, which are very suitable for taking pictures. This is a great place to experience Japan's traditional culture and beautiful nature, and it is worth savoring.
