Nagoya

Souvenir shopping in Nagoya

  1. Shopping in Meidōchō district

    The specialty in the Meidōchō district, north of Nagoya Station and west of Nagoya-jō, is okashi, Japanese snacks and penny nibbles (sembei rice crackers to sweet-potato sticks, dried fish to sponge cake), plus small toys like action figures, beads and balloons. Dozens of wholesalers display their wares in a manner that may dispel any notion of Japanese neatness.
