Japanese Culture And Landmarks / Japanese Grand Prix
Nagoya Castle & Honmaru Palace
Castle gardens and Honmaru Palace, with seasonal blossom and a separate palace admission cutoff.
01 / Why it matters
More than a stop on a list.
Explore the castle grounds and reconstructed Honmaru Palace on a non-race day. The main keep is closed to visitors; the palace and gardens are the focus of a visit. Cherry blossoms depend on the season and weather. Treat flowers as a possible extra, not a promise for 9–11 April. Leave time for the palace queue and check the visitor page for closures and current admission prices.
04 / Before you go
Plan it well.
Enjoy it properly.
