Currently planning a trip for the fall and wanted to take a good amount of time to explore in and around Nagoya. My current plan is to travel from Tokyo to Kyoto and use Nagoya as a stopover base to explore sights in Gifu and Aichi for a few days. I'm trying to determine how to build my itinerary and how many days and nights to allocate for it.

Places I'm interested in visiting:

Nagoya: SC Maglev Museum, Honmaru Palace, Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry

Inuyama: Inuyama Castle, Meiji-Mura

Gifu City: Gifu Castle (yes, I know it's a reconstruction, but the views at the top seem worth it), Cormorant fishing

Sekigahara: Gifu Sekigahara Battlefield Memorial Museum

Gero Onsen: Want to spend 1 night at a ryokan in Gero either at the beginning or end of this part of the trip.

Based on your experiences, how many days/ nights should I spend in Nagoya to visit most if not all of these places? I think Sekigahara could be included with Gifu City, but trying to add Inuyama on the same day might be too much. How would you allocate your time for this?

Conquering the waters and slaying the Leviathan is an El of a good time!
