Aichi Prefecture

Aichi Prefecture (愛知県, Aichi-ken) is located in the Chubu region of Honshu, the main island of Japan. Its capital is Nagoya, which is one of Japan’s major industrial and economic centers.

As the largest city and the capital of Aichi, Nagoya is a major economic and industrial hub. It is home to several important industries, including automotive and aerospace manufacturing. Companies such as Toyota, Honda, and Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation have a strong presence in the region.

Aichi has a number of cultural and historical attractions. Nagoya Castle, originally built in the early 17th century, is a prominent landmark. Atsuta Shrine, one of Japan’s most important Shinto shrines, is also located in Nagoya and is associated with the legendary sword Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.

The local cuisine of Aichi, and particularly Nagoya, is known for its unique flavors. Hitsumabushi, a grilled eel dish, and miso katsu, a variation of the popular tonkatsu (breaded and deep-fried pork cutlet), are some of the local specialties.
