Hello,
I read on internet that in Nagoya there's a sort of italian village
(kind of theme park).
Does anyone know if is it worth a visit or not?!!
And is it close to 2005 Expo?!!
And sorry what does it mean MURA in japanese?!!
That's all.

Hello! Welcome to Japan!

I'm living in Osaka, so I'm sorry I don't know much about Nagoya....

"Mura" means "village" in English.

Hope this helps and hope you will enjoy your stay here in Japan :-)

Thanks a lot for the quick translation!!
At the moment I am studying hard japanese language but...mmmmm...I get lost often.
I decided that my next aim will be to learn japanese language,I really wanna
learn a third language.I hope I won't take 10 years or something.We'll see.


Hey "AyurinHiro" I checked your very nice page and I am quite astonished about how many countries you two have visited....maybe you two have more lives!!!


I would have liked to go to Guam for few days but I gave up because of typhoons
and bad weather so I decided to stay in Japan and to go to visit Kyushu(exactly Fukuoka).
What about Fukuoka?!!Is it nice and interesting?!!Its forum is very poor.


That's all for today folks!!
See ya next week,this weekend I'll go to seaside(italian one this time)!!!

Hi!
Nagoya has a sort of Italian village which is called "Italia mura(Villaggio Italia)".
The theme park has just opened in April this year.
It is located at Minato-ku and takes about 20minutes from Nagoya station by subway.
(*You will need to change the trains at Kanayama station.)
There are some Italian restaurants,cafes and many clothes shops.
On weekdays,the admission fee is free.
On weekends(Saturday,Sunday) until the 31th of August,you have to buy a shopping ticket(1000yen) as admission fee.
I have never been to the village,but I'm going to visit there soon and I'll introduce the village on my page. :)
