Japan 2014: Nagoya - Toyota Automobile Museum

Today was out first trip on the Shinkansen, a 700 series train from Tokyo Station to Nagoya after a short trip on a local train from Shinjuku.

Weather was very hot today, it peaked near Nagoya at 38C!

The purpose of the trip was to visit the Toyoya Automobile Museum located just outside Nagoya, although it felt a lot further than 'just'!

We had a Green Japan Rail Pass so had the pleasure of first class to Nagoya, its a very civilised experience.

After we reached Nagoya we had a short local train to Kanayama where we dropped our bags off. Then another local train to Chickusa where we picked up the subway to Geidiadori.

The museum housed around 100 cars from all makes and regions on the history of the automobile.

The shop cafe serves the most appaling food, best avoided! We did not try the resturaunt so could not comment.
