About Nagoya Time Zone

Nagoya is Japan's fourth-largest city and the capital of Aichi prefecture, home to approximately 2.3 million city residents and 10 million in the Greater Nagoya area. Like all of Japan, it operates on Japan Standard Time (JST, UTC+9). Nagoya is Japan's manufacturing heartland — Toyota Motor Corporation is headquartered in nearby Toyota City, and the entire Chubu region generates a higher proportion of Japan's total exports than any other region. Nagoya's Port of Nagoya is Japan's busiest port by cargo value and tonnage. Nagoya Castle, originally built in 1612 by Tokugawa Ieyasu to control the road between Tokyo and Osaka, features famous golden shachi (dolphin-tiger hybrid) finials on its roof and is the city's defining landmark. Nagoya is the birthplace of several of Japan's most celebrated cultural exports: pachinko (pinball gambling), Nagoya-style miso cuisine (kakuni miso, miso katsu), and the tea ceremony innovations of the Ueda school.
