    If you're visiting Nagoya, make sure to leave time for Osu Shopping Street.

    This place is basically one huge treasure-hunting area, with long-established shops, affordable food, vintage clothing, trendy accessories, and even an otaku paradise!

    What I like most is that the food is delicious and inexpensive. Every few steps, you'll see something you want to eat, so it's impossible to stop snacking while browsing. The shops are also full of character, and you'll often suddenly come across something and think, “Huh? What's this? It looks interesting!” 😂

    Osu Shopping Street blends vintage clothing shops, traditional temples, long-established stores, secondhand kimono, subculture, international cuisine, and everyday local life. Alongside tourist-oriented businesses, there are supermarkets and food stores used by residents. What surprised me most was the number of shops selling secondhand kimono, hakama, and vintage clothing. It’s perfect for anyone who enjoys taking their time hunting for unique retro finds. Some of the vintage clothing isn’t cheap, but the pieces are genuinely beautiful, and browsing alone is fun.

    Along the way, you can grab a soy sauce-glazed grilled dango from Shinsuzume Honten on Niomon Street. The savory soy sauce and charcoal-grilled aroma make it a great snack while exploring. If you arrive early, you can also have breakfast at the old-school café Hayashi Coffee Il Fiore, across from Osu Kannon Temple. I especially love their scrambled eggs.

    Overall, Osu Shopping Street offers a great mix of tourism, local life, and treasure hunting, plus a few attractions to explore. I’d recommend setting aside an entire afternoon. It’s just as enjoyable to browse as the shopping street near Senso-ji.
