Ohsukannon

 

Nagoya’s 2 famous spots are the “Nagoya Castle” and the “Ohsu Kannon”.

Today I am introducing the “Oshu Kannon”.
Ohsukannon

The “Ohsu Kannon” is a popular Buddhist temple in central Nagoya. Originally built during the Kamakura Period (1192-1333)

Otsu shopping arcade is a huge and popular shopping area containing over 1,200 shops and restaurants. All kinds of shops, including electrical appliance shops, secondhand clothing stores, Juelly shops, Duty Free Shop and l0ts of various regional restaurants are there.

It used to be streets to get to the temple. Many shops opened to attract people who come to the temple to pray.

As much as I remember, until 10 years ago, it was a lasted town. Only some souvenir shops and hardware stores, as well as pottery shops were there.

Of cause if you like the Japanese-Subculture “Animation” (Anime) hello, you can become the person in the Anime and can walk around the arcade feeling like you are the one.

Take pictures with many friends.

You will see many foreigners like you. You can become friends in a second…

Especially people who would like to buy Japanese Rice Cooker , this is the
place you should go to because they have not only duty free items but also
ones fit to your country’s electricity situation.
