Which Toyota Museum Should You Visit Near Nagoya?
Two museums, both called Toyota, forty minutes apart and about different things. One is about how the company came to exist; the other is about cars in general.
GUIDES
The questions listings do not answer
Two places with the same name and different subjects. A line that is not the subway. What “a short walk from the station” means when it is raining.
What these cover
The itineraries tell you what to do with a day. These guides are for the decisions you have to make before that — the ones where the listings all say the same thing and none of them help you choose.
Two museums near Nagoya share the Toyota name and get near-identical one-line descriptions in English listings, but they are about different things and sit forty minutes apart. That is one guide. The other is about the two train lines that are not the subway, which is what stands between you and half the places worth going, and about what “a short walk from the station” turns out to mean when it is raining.
Every opening time, closing day and fare quoted here comes from the venue’s own site and carries the date it was read. Where an official site does not state something, it is left out rather than guessed at.
