Hisayaodori Park in the Heart of Nagoya
Sakae’s Hisayaodori Park is a very nice urban park that features events on weekends; if the weather is good, nearly every weekend. The park also contains the Nagoya TV Tower. The 180-meter tower was the first built in Japan back in 1954. Since then, Nagoya has become quite fond of it, and the TV Tower is often mentioned as a symbol of Nagoya. When the weather is nice you can find families and couples taking pictures in front of it, and at night when the tower is illuminated it dominates the skyline and can be seen from all over Sakae.
The part of the Park that is used for large events is near Los Angeles Plaza, near Lachic and Parco. This space is where the Thai and Belgium Beer Festivals are held each year!
