8. Nagoya, Japan
When even the Mayor admits that nobody wants to visit his city, you know you are in a boring place. Takashi Kawamura, Nagoya’s Mayor, threw a hissy fit when Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe announced that the government will prioritize Tokyo and Osaka for development in the future. Already burdened with the title of the most boring city in Japan, Nagoya will struggle even more to attract tourists and keep its population with these measures in place. Nagoya has been historically a huge economic region, which led to the city and its surroundings being heavily bombed during the World War 2. It suffered the fate similar to Frankfurt, with almost all of its historic building destroyed and little touristic appeal left. But at least, it has one of the highest standards of living in Japan, so the residents can entertain themselves with counting their money. Not much left is there to do anyway.
