Nagoya 3-night, 4-day trip including visits to the Kansai region!

This time, the Japan trip is planned for 3 nights and 4 days in Nagoya. Nagoya is the third most visited city after Tokyo and Osaka, serving as a central hub for connections. The itinerary includes a round trip to Nagoya, covering Gifu Prefecture, Mie Prefecture, Shiga Prefecture, and Kyoto Prefecture. Since the return flight is scheduled for 10 AM on the 4th day, the trip effectively provides 3 full days for exploration. A detailed plan has been crafted to make the most of the time: Day 1 in Nagoya, Day 2 in Kyoto, and Day 3 with accommodation in Handa. Afternoon tea sessions have been reserved at newly opened hotels in Nagoya and Kyoto, totaling 9 sessions over 3 days. For the first time, I’m attempting 4 sessions in a single day, having successfully managed 3 sessions on over 10 occasions before. This new challenge is fueled by confidence from past experiences. Last month, a new Pokémon manhole was installed in Gifu Prefecture, and I plan to visit one of them during this trip. I’ll also collect manholes from Gifu, Mie, and Shiga Prefectures. Additionally, the Gifu Prefecture itinerary includes visits to an aquarium, an aviation museum, and a tower, all within a speedy 2-hour timeframe. In Aichi Prefecture, I’ll visit one of the four towers I haven’t been to yet among Japan’s top 20 towers. This particular tower ranks 9th in height. Previously, I visited the 4th and 10th tallest towers located in Nagoya. The remaining three towers are in Akita, Toyama, and Kagawa Prefectures, which I plan to conquer next year. In Mie and Shiga Prefectures, I’ll take short walks of about 1 kilometer each along the Tokaido and Nakasendo routes. I’m especially looking forward to visiting Kakami-gahara, Kameyama, Ritto, and Handa for the first time. Thank you!
