Address: 456-8763, Nagoya-shi, Atsuta-ku, Rokuno 1-2-11

Comment: A Free shuttle bus runs every 30 mins from Kanayama station South exit, next to the Boston Arts Museum. Either that or just a 10 minute walk. Avoid driving as parking is very difficult.

Aeon Shopping Center (Chikusa)

About: Just a few minutes walk from Tsurumai JR / Subway station brigs you to Chikusa Aeon. Not with the variety of Shops of Ozone or Atsuta but a quieter and more relaxing atmosphere make it popular with locals. A large Aeon Supermarket, Daiso and Starbucks stand out as the more popular of destinations.

Comments: Not part of the Aeon complex but conveniently located right next to Aeon is Pacific Sports Gym. Although there is an Aeon supermarket, there is no Jusco shopping centre. The inside has been reformed and there is one of the best 100 yens stores in Nagoya on the second floor.

Aeon Shopping Center (Minami Odaka)

About: Located on the outskirts of Nagoya City in a town called Odaka, one of the newest of the Aeon Chain, “Minami-Odaka” was opened in April 2008 and an ajoining train station (linked by a walkway) was opened a few months later.

An excellent choice of restaurants ranging from Italian, Japanese, a Chinese all you can eat, as well as a food court (fast food option) will keep dad happy.

Comments: Easieest access is by train as Minami-Odaka station connects directly with the shopping centre. Watch movies after 8pm for 1000Yen!

Aeon Shopping Center (Ozone)

About: Possibly the largest Aeon complex in Nagoya, Nagoya Dome Aeon can be reached within a few mintes walk of the JR, Subway and Meitetsu Station. What makes this Aeon even more impressive than others is the sheer number of restaurants and cafes inside; one example being that their are 3 starbucks cafes within the complex!! Watch out though, just after a Dragons (Nagoya’s professional baseball team) game, the place can be flooded with people looking for a bite to eat. Try “dessert” forest, a themed area where you can enjoy sweets and cakes from around Japan.
