Nagoya Station

Went out for geocaching without loading GPS data. Had a short walk around Nagoya station instead.







Komuso
A monk of Huke (fuke) sect of Zen Buddhism.

Sento-kun
The creepy mascot for the 1300th anniversary of the Heijo-kyo capital in Nara.






Nagoya station has a large underground shopping mall. Half of the shops were closed due to holidays.

Kimono shop. Btw, we call these casual kimonos in this picture "yukata". Kimono usually refers to more formal attire. In general, yukata is made of cotton and lighter when kimono is made of silk and heavier.
