Exploring Toyota and Nisshin Cities
Heading straight to Toyota City. Due to time constraints, I skip visiting the actual manhole at Toyota Stadium and instead collect two manhole cards. There's a free exhibition showcasing hundreds of figures, which is quite enjoyable.
After the free exhibition, I move on to Nisshin City. I take a taxi to Iwasaki Castle, a castle with a keep and a rich history, considered one of the most beautiful castles in Aichi Prefecture. Currently, admission is free, and there are no staff present.
Despite this, the facilities are clean, and the keep is open for free, allowing visitors to climb up. It's truly a hidden gem. The castle is accessible by bus from Nagoya Hoshigaoka. On the first day, I return to my hotel in Nagoya using buses and the subway. Thank you.
