Completely rebuilt after a wartime drubbing, it's an overwhelmingly modern city of high-rise buildings, wide boulevards, multi-lane highways and flyovers, more suited to business than sightseeing. This is where Japan's top pasttime, pachinko , was born; the mind-numbing pinball game's mix of flashing lights and noise are a reflection of the city.</p> <p>Despite the hustle and bustle, Nagoya is still more laidback than Tokyo or Osaka and it has a few decent attractions, the most interesting of which is the grand Tokugawa Art Museum , housing belongings of the powerful family who once ruled Japan, and the Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology , an appropriate tribute to Nagoya's industrial heritage. The city's most hyped attractions - the castle Nagoya-jo and the sacred shrine Atsuta-jingu - are hardly outstanding examples of their kind, but they're worth checking out if you have the time.</p> <p>West of Nagoya, the Kiso-gawa forms the border between Aichi-ken and Gifu-ken, and the ancient night spectacle of ukai , cormorant fishing is still practised in Inuyama . This small castle town, where you'll find the classical Jo-an teahouse in a beautiful traditional garden, is also the jumping-off point for the vast outdoor architectural museum, Meiji Mura . Across the river in Gifu-ken, the capital Gifu serves up a similar combination of castle, parks and ukai , and is well-known for its production of lanterns and umbrellas made of paper. Further into the mountains, along the Nagara River, Gujo Hachiman is a refreshing city of clean rivers and traditional houses, with a summer dance festival that is perhaps the best in Japan.</p> <p>Café de Crie . At several locations around the city including Sakae and near the Hilton . A chain café offering cheap and tasty breakfasts and snacks.</p> <p>Hard Rock Café . Hirokoji-dori, Sakae, next to the Hilton hotel. You know the score before you enter. The same American-style burgers, fries and rock'n'roll knick-knacks found at other outlets around the world.</p> <p>Nagoya Hilton , 1-3-3 Sakae. Head to this hotel for a fantastic range of good-value lunches in all six of its restaurants, ranging from a curry and salad buffet (¥1600) to Japanese specialities such as sukiyaki and tempura (¥1900-3000 per person).</p> <p>Jerry's Uno . Laidback Mexican café-cum-American-diner next to the cinema on the corner a block west of the Hilton . Serves spicy buritos, cheesy tacos and crispy tacos, as well as an impressive range of beers from around the world.</p> <p>Matsuzakaya . On the seventh floor of the department store, next to JR Nagoya Station, is a wide range of restaurants where you can sample the noodle dish, kishimen .</p> <p>Osho . Cheap and cheerful Chinese café, one block south of the Maruzen bookshop on one of Sakae's main shopping streets. Has an English menu and pictures of the excellent-value set meals, which rarely cost over ¥1000. Daily 11am-11.30pm.</p> <p>Yagya , 3-13-21 Meieki. Ultra-modern Southeast Asian and Japanese restaurant with a vaguely Balinese feel to its interior. Look for the huge Aztec ruin facade, 2min walk northeast of JR Nagoya Station. A good deal if you come with a crowd and share dishes. There's also a branch in Sakae. Daily 5pm-midnight.</p> <p>Yamamoto-ya Honten</p> </body>
