Nagoya

Global MICE Cities

Boasting a history of over 1,900 years, Nagoya is home to Atsuta-jingu Shrine, which enshrines the sword of Kusanagi, one of Japan's Three Sacred Treasures. Strategically located in the heart of Japan, the city was established by Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1610. The city has long been an industrial hub with a diverse range of industries, from traditional ceramics and textiles to cutting-edge sectors such as automobiles, aerospace, and robotics. It also offers rich historical and cultural experiences, from historic castles that bring samurai culture to life to museums and its unique local cuisine, Nagoya-meshi.
