The industrial tourism business in Nagoya will have a new mission in fiscal 2015. Museums and activity centers will begin tracking visitors' nationalities in order to target them better.

The city hopes to draw more tourists by offering announcements and printed information in foreign languages.

The Aichi Museum and Industrial Sightseeing Conference, also known as Amic, and the Nagoya Chamber of Commerce & Industry are trying how to determine a visitor's nationality without asking directly, which they say could offend them.
