Sight seeing day

Went to the Nagoya Castle this morning~

Nagoya Castle

Although some sites were still under construction, it’s fascinating to see the arts and design of the Hommaru Palace.

I then walk around the Nagoya station, which is incredibly large. Similar to the Fukuoka station, there were lots of shopping malls and shopping streets underground. Initially I planned to have a bubble milk tea at Lu Jiao Xiang, but the queue was so long and I just gave up. The crazy part was I spent 30 minutes finding the bubble tea shop (Yes, I have a terrible sense of direction).

Btw, I bought a little bear at the station! It’s called the ‘Uirou bear'(ういろうベア). In Japan, there are actually a few designs of bears with different colors representing every single county. In Nagoya, there are two kinds of design, one with brown and white, another one which is the one below! https://www.fujisey.co.jp/gotouchibear/aichi/#menuList

It is cute isn’t it 😀 I actually bought it because of my favorite voice actress- Nakahara Mai. She went to Nagoya few weeks ago and got this! https://twitter.com/mai__nakahara/status/1132243139131990016
(Mai-chan is very lovely and I really admire her very much!! Her famous roles are Furukawa Nagisa from Clannad, Ryuugu Rena from Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, Watashi-chan from Jinrui wa Suitaishimashita(Human has declined), Estelle from Tales of Vesperia etc. Let’s talk about her next time haha

I then went to Bic Camera, which is opposite the station to search for Perfume’s signature. (Yes, I love Mai and Perfume!) And Ta-daaa!!

After that, I had a walk at the Oasis 21(near Sakae station). The concept of the building is fun and creative; they have a spaceship-aqua rooftop, green field at the ground floor, bus terminal on the first floor and galaxy platform and shops at basement level.

After putting my stuff back in hotel, I went out for lunch(or dinner lol). It was 1600 at that time and the weather is still sunny(the forecast this morning said that it will begin to rain at 1500).

I went to a restaurant named ‘Yamamoto-ya’. They serve mainly udon with miso or with curry. I ate the one where A-chan recommended. It’s the miso udon with egg and chicken(名古屋コーチン玉子入味噌煮込みうどん).

It was so delicious! Will definitely keep you warm during winter hhh.

Had a really great day today, lots of walking, quite tiring but it was fun! Gotta rest early and prepare for tomorrow’s housing orientation!
