What will you recommend if we make a stop at nagoya?

It`s not so much that I had specific suggestions. I was really just commenting on the pattern of people passing through and never stopping.
It seems to be really common. But... since you asked...
Atsuta is quite a great place to visit if they are giving the "special tours" during the time period - a rare chance to go into the deeper parts of the shrine.
Nagoya castle kind of sucks (it looks nice from the outside but that`s about it...) but if you go outside Nagoya - Inuyama castle is absolutely stunning. Arimatsu is a great place to walk through, old old style city streets, etc. Plus there is the Toyota museum nearby.
It really depends on what you would want to see, but this area is huge on history - Tokugawa Ieyasu and Oda Nobunaga are both from this area... And they put a lot of money at the time into making lots of various things.
Oh, and also the oldest wooden multi-tiered temple tower in Japan is just around the corner from where I live.
