Step by step

  1. 1

    Meitetsu μSKY → Meitetsu Nagoya

    Board at Platform 1. The fastest trains take 28 minutes.

    Every μSKY seat is reserved: you need the train ticket (¥980) and a μ-Ticket (¥450).

    Don't get caught: buy the μ-Ticket before you board. Without one, the conductor charges ¥500 on the train.
  2. 2

    Subway to Nagoya Castle Station (¥240)

    • Take the Higashiyama Line to Sakae.
    • Change to the Meijo Line — clockwise.
    • Get off at Nagoya Castle Station (M07).
  3. 3

    Exit 7, then a 5-minute walk

    Use Exit 7. The castle gate is about five minutes on foot.
