Trivia
Nagoya is famous for its large shopping malls and fresh seafood.

Although not blessed with the beautiful beaches, cool sea and lush forests which fringe many towns and villages on Palau Batam, Nagoya is a good place for those who want to indulge in simple pleasures such as shopping, dining and watching a movie at the cinema.

There is plenty of accommodation in Nagoya, and it is easy to spend several days here. However, many visitors find the allure of the ocean far too strong and merely pause here briefly before heading to the coast. The town is famous for its seafood, and this is a particularly good place to eat as there are numerous restaurants and cheap food stalls to choose from, serving a range of culinary delights.
