  • NIC Walking Guides
    NIC Walking Guides -Neighbouring Spot- ○22 Tokoname Pottery Path NAGOYA INTERNATIONAL CENTER INTRODUCTION With a population of 2.2 million, Nagoya, the capital of Aichi Prefecture, is the core city of Japan’s fourth-largest metropolitan area. As commerce and industry prospered, and culture flourished in the Edo Period, Nagoya grew into a thriving metropolis. Nagoya has continued to grow since Ieyasu Tokugawa, founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate Government, built Nagoya Castle in 1612. A culture and tradition of manufacturing blossomed during the Meiji Period and is still evolving today. This guide has been prepared for foreign residents of Nagoya and visitors who are interested in viewing local tourist attractions. This is one of a series of walking guides covering various areas of Nagoya. Contained in this guide is a model walking route applicable to the specified area or spot. You will find a variety of cultural and historical attractions situated around the walking course. We hope that you find this guide useful. ACCESS As Tokoname City is located just beside the Central Japan International Airport, reaching there from Nagoya is very easy. Tokoname Station is only about 35 minutes from Nagoya or Kanayama on the Meitetsu “Tokoname Line” 常滑線 Express. It is only a 5 minute walk from Tokoname Station to the starting point of the Pottery Path. 2 Tokoname and the Pottery Path in Brief “Yakimono Sanpomichi” or Pottery Footpath of Tokoname is actually a model walking course of the various points of interest of the pottery town Tokoname, opened in 1972. This path is filled with traditional houses, workshops and other unique and characteristic buildings.
