- Attraction Introduction -
- Mitsui Outlet Park, Jazz Dream Long Island
A must-visit in Nagoya, this is Japan's largest outlet park, boasting approximately 190 brand-name stores. It encompasses a wide range of global brands, from world-renowned luxury labels and popular Japanese boutiques to sports, leisure, and general merchandise. In terms of both the number of stores and the total area, it's among the largest in Japan. In addition, there are nearby amusement parks, swimming pools, and hot spring facilities, making it a perfect destination for the whole family and friends to enjoy shopping together. There is a service center for foreign tourists, and tax refunds are available at many stores.
- Long Island Hot Spring
Nagashima Onsen is a large-scale hot spring resort located next to the outlet park. It features natural hot springs and is one of the largest man-made natural hot spring resorts in Japan, with a total of 17 baths, including open-air ones. After shopping, if you wish to soak in the hot springs, you can take a free shuttle bus from Nagashima Outlet Park. In addition, there are saunas and rock baths to help you relax after a day of shopping.
- Nahana no Sato (Limited time: 10/19 - 5/29)
Nahana no Sato, part of Nagashima Resort, opened in 1998 and is the largest theme park in the Tokai region of Japan. It's famous for its 13,000-tsubo plaza, boasting the largest flower field in the Tokai region, as well as Japanese-style bridges and streams. It's also known as the largest garden in Japan. Here, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of blooming flowers in all four seasons, each with a different theme. While Nahana no Sato is a famous flower viewing spot in Japan year-round, its winter flower festival is always the most popular. Because the light festival runs from autumn/winter until the following spring, many people specifically visit Nahana no Sato to admire the night-blooming foliage and cherry blossoms—both incredibly romantic and enchanting! The park has eight restaurants, including Japanese, Chinese, and Western cuisine. In winter, there's a light show. A tunnel composed of 1.2 million small light bulbs leads to a giant LED screen that displays animations of cherry blossoms throughout the four seasons, accompanied by Japanese sound effects—a truly breathtaking experience. In 2019, a thousand-year-old olive tree was imported from Spain, a rare sight indeed. The theme changes every year, so don't miss it.
