Omiya will be a bit travel from Nagoya and Shinkansen is not necessarily cheap.
You could try Nara or the gardens/temples in Kyoto. Alternatively go south to Hiroshima.

OHHHH the things I would do…
Priorities…
Bonsai, food, saki/beer, Japanese gardens.? Maybe a cheap Japanese ryokan (bed n breakfast) to sleep in.
.
Google maps … All of the above show up.
Nishinomya Gardens is near Osaka.
Koukaen Gardens is at Osaka.
Several bonsai gardens. Even one with B n B.
