Nagoya: Guided Walking Tour of Hirokoji Street
Joined 2023
This is a two-hour guided walking tour of Hirokoji Street, one of the main streets of central Nagoya which runs straight from the Nagoya Station area to Sakae, the very heart of Nagoya. Thousands of people just walk Hirokoji Street hurriedly to go to their offices, shops or restaurants destinations everyday but actually there are lots of interesting stories and trivia, both historic and modern. You will find out the city’s history, culture and life of local people through this walk.

About Tour Guide Nozomi T.
Hello! I'm Nozomi. I was working in the tourism industry in Tokyo for 30+ years, then I moved to Nagoya and worked as college professor teaching tourism and English for 10 years, and just retired from teaching March 2023.
Nagoya is the prefectural capital of Aichi and you may have an image that Nagoya is an industrial city but it’s not just that. Nagoya is the city with varied attractions. This region is the cradle of the three most famous Samurai lords from the 16th century and there are lots of interesting historic sites and stories. Nagoya is a member of UNESCO creative cities and it is certified as City of Design. It hosts annual World Cosplay Summit which is participated by fabulous Cosplayers from around the world.
I love to explore art and craft, pottery towns, local specialty food, fermentation tourism (sake, soy sauce, miso, mirin, etc.) , traditional festivals and hot spring, so I’d be especially delighted to show such things to my guests!
