Nagoya is one of the three major cities in Japan and was selected as one of “World’s Greatest Places 2023” by American TIME MAGAZINE.
There are several cool record shops in this city.

I selected these shops based on the following criteria:

A wide selection of records (you can find city pop)
Easy accessibility (so you can save time and enjoy other tourist activities, shopping, and dining)
The ability to use credit cards
