The Port of Nagoya (名古屋港; Nagoya-kō), located in Ise Bay, is the largest trading port in Japan, accounting for about 10% of the total trade value of Japan. Notably, this port is the largest exporter of cars in Japan and where the Toyota Motor Corporation exports most of its cars. The now-retired South Pole survey ship “Fuji” moors at the Port of Nagoya as a museum of the South Pole.
