A Relaxed Walk Around Nagoya – Shrines, Temples & Coffee Breaks

#cityplaybook Nagoya might be known for its big city vibes and hearty food, but take a little detour and you’ll find peaceful streets perfect for a laid-back stroll. One of my first stops was Wakamiya Hachiman Shrine, a quiet and historic spot tucked between the city’s buildings. It’s simple but serene—just what I needed to start the day. Then I visited Osu Kannon, a lively temple surrounded by bustling shopping streets. The contrast between the peaceful temple and the energetic crowds is so uniquely Japanese. To end the walk, I stopped by Kissa Tsuzuki, a classic Nagoya café that’s been around for decades. The cozy atmosphere and rich coffee made it the perfect break. Why I recommend Nagoya for a stroll: ・There’s a great mix of culture, history, and cozy cafés ・You can explore calm corners of the city just steps from busy streets 📍Naka Ward, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, Japan #nagoyawalk #osukannon #wakamiyahachiman #kissatsuzuki #nagoyacafe #localjapan #hiddengems #cityplaybook #nagoyavibes
