Introduction

Nakamura Park is a city park in Nagoya's Nakamura Ward, on the birthplace of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Toyokuni Shrine, built in 1885, is fronted by a 24.5 m torii once Japan's largest; the free Hideyoshi-Kiyomasa museum upstairs in the cultural plaza tells their story, while spring cherries and summer bon dances mark the seasons.
