Still, there is an ancient culture and history here, and there are dozens of shrines, temples and a castle to explore. In contrast to cities like Tokyo and Osaka, Okazaki was spared a good deal of the destruction in WWII. Our city is conveniently situated to visit Kyoto, Tokyo, Nara, Osaka, nearby mountains, etc. Unemployment is very low here, making it easier for you to find a part time job, and expenses are drastically lower than Tokyo, for instance.
