Nagoya Tokoname City - the hometown of the lucky cat and a region rich in ceramics

Tokoname City is located in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. It is a small city famous for its ceramics and seaport. The region has a long history of pottery and is particularly famous for Tokoname ware. Tokoname ware is praised for its elegant design and high-quality craftsmanship and is one of the six ancient kilns of Japan. Tokoname City is known as the "hometown of the lucky cat", and the Tokoname lucky cat is a unique cultural symbol of Tokoname City. These lucky cats are known for their unique designs and exquisite craftsmanship. The Maneki Neko is believed to bring good luck and prosperity in Japanese culture. When you walk near Tokoname Station, you will see a giant lucky cat on the slope, as if it is bringing happiness to Tokoname City. There is a very cute road called the "Lucky Cat Passage". Along the road are 39 ceramic lucky cats, which were made by 39 local potters. They have different meanings such as making friends, health and longevity, and fulfilling wishes. #NagoyaTravel #100 Ways to Travel

Otafuku the Giant Beckoning Cat

Tokoname is very close to the Nagoya Chubu Airport NGO, just two stops away. It is recommended to spend the last day of your trip in Tokoname so that you don't have to rush to the airport. There are many lucky cats and cat-shaped ceramics here, and you can spend half a day looking for these attractions. If you like Pokémon, you can find cute round hole covers near the beach, which is great!
