Double P Double C

This is my first visit to Nagoya. The trip was great, not because the city offers endless shopping mall, but the hospitality of my two Malaysian friends.


Nagoya TV tower and Oasis on the right (an magnificent piece of architecture )


Nagoya TV tower and its reflected image on Oasis roof.


We later headed to Italian Village. (Italian Mura) near Nagoya port.


I wished we were early enough to have a coffee by the canal, whislt listening to Italian music playing in the air...
what a romantic place..


Can anyone tell me how to call this kind of boat in English?


And this mask, any specific name for it?

We later headed home early, to prepare for our trip to Ishikawa-ken on the next morning.
I will post on Ishikawa trip later.

I think the boat is gondola. And the masks are called Venetian masks I think, made of papier mache. I thinklah. Save money, go to the REAL Venice.
