  1. Hey #Tokyo or #Osaka people. At what dates/times are the ladies only subway train cars in service? In #nagoya it’s every weekday all day. There are load balance questions I have? I’m genuinely curious as the time I spent in Tokyo the lady only cars were for a short time weekday mornings? I want to be informed.
    If this is tabboo or insane whatever I’m sorry.

  2. Drove from Tokyo to Nagoya and back in a BYD Atto 3 in two days to see the Solar Ark and stay at the Nagoya Tower Hotel.

    BYD Atto 3: One of my favorite EVs to drive, right behind the Hyundai IONIQ 5. And the funky interior has been growing on me. No issues with range or charging, especially since every rest area has fast charging spots.

    The Solar Ark: Ark as in Noah’s. It’s a bridge to the 21st century and a celebration of Sanyo’s 50th anniversary (they didn’t make it 60). Many of the panels they ended up using were recalls from a mislabeling scandal they a few years earlier. Corporate penance and clean energy for the new millennium in the form of a giant monument. Deconstruction starts next month.

    Nagoya Tower Hotel: Not-Tokyo-Tower has a hotel in it. With real structural girders in the rooms. And a record player. And art. And a secret door to the elevator you can take to the top after normal business hours. Very cool.

  3. The Asian Games begin in Japan in a month's time featuring teenage prodigies, more athletes than the Olympics and a cruise ship that will house competitors in the middle of typhoon season. japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/0 #sports #asiangames #aichi #nagoya

  4. In recent years, a Nagoya tidal flat — a landing zone for migratory birds — has seen massive amounts of plastic waste washed ashore, leaving researchers concerned about how the ecosystem might be affected. japantimes.co.jp/environment/2 #environment #wildlife #environment #plastic #oceans #rivers #pollution #nagoya

  5. Japan bereitet sich auf die Asienspiele vor: In Nagoya haben Polizei und Verkehrsbetriebe den Ernstfall in Bahnhöfen und einer fahrenden U-Bahn geprobt. Im Mittelpunkt standen bewaffnete Angreifer und die schnelle Evakuierung von Fahrgästen.

  6. Good morning from Japan! Today's new image in the photoblog section of my website was taken outside the main hall of Osu Kannon Temple in Nagoya, overlooking the flea market that is held there twice a month.

  7. The U.S. State Department has notified Congress that it plans to close five foreign missions — including one in Japan — in a rare downsizing of America's global diplomatic footprint. japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/08/ #worldnews #politics #us #grenada #nagoya #japan #indonesia #cameroon #winnipeg #canada

  8. Japan sizzled under sweltering, life-threatening ⁠heat on Wednesday, with temperatures expected to top 40 degrees Celsius in some cities in what the government has ​newly designated as a "brutally hot ‌day." japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/07/ #japan #heatwaves #heatstroke #summer #saitama #nagoya

  9. I've been watching the Grand Sumo tourney in Nagoya, Japan. Always found it an interesting niche of Japanese culture. IDK, maybe it was cause I was an E. Honda player as a kid in the arcades back in the day, lol. Kinda crazy there's some sumo that are still doing it at 50, and beating kids more than half their age 😮 Some of the weight disparities are wild as well. Matches where the difference between sumo is more than *I* weigh. Also pretty cool to see some dudes from outside of Japan have taken it up (I think that's been a thing for a while but there's several of them now).

    Watching via the MidnightSumo live streams on Twitch. Dude knows his stuff, pretty impressive.

  10. Recent travels started with my wife's home city of Nagoya, going to a Buddhist temple ceremony with my mother-in-law. The first photo shows the pagoda of Nittaiji (日泰寺), which means Japan-Thailand Temple, with a giant lotus. The second photo is of Nagoya Port (名古屋港). Another trip was staying at two hotels in Kyōto, which wasn't necessary because we live nearby, but my wife and her Nagoya friend wanted to enjoy the amenities and talk. I see a possible new trend, since the last 3 hotels we've stayed at had times for various free snacks and drinks, so we didn't need to eat out after the breakfast buffet. It is surprising because the hotels were inexpensive and food and alcohol are relatively expensive. The third photo, from our hotel roof, shows the pagoda of Tōji (東寺) with Shinkansen trains running in front of it. At the Shintō shrine Imamiya Jinja (今宮神社), my wife's friends wanted to eat the sweet mochi shown in the fourth photo.

  14. Good morning from Japan! ☀️

    An unforgettable scene from the flea market at Osu Kannon Temple in Nagoya is my photo blog post for the day. This area of Nagoya is fascinating to explore.
