Take the Seibu Shinjuku Line to Kawagoe at the terminal. This is the perfect place for a half-day tour around Tokyo! It is called "Little Edo" because it retains many Edo period buildings. Taisho Romance Street and Kawagoe Ichiban Street are very ancient
However, after seeing a lot of Edo Old Street, I think Kawagoe’s shrine is more surprising!
• Kumano Shrine: You can “launder money” for gold, ferring for luck, and a cobblestone health trail for super funny fun with friends
• Glacier Shrine: The draw depends on fishing “fishing” out, special enough! There is a grand glacier festival in October. I think I will come back then
• Hitoin: The thousand-year-old temple is quiet enough, with 500 Arhats each with its own characteristics
Route recommendation: Honkawa Yue → Hitoin → Kumano Shrine → Taisho Romantic Street → Clock of Time → Glacier Shrine
Although the snacks and sweet potatoes are not stunning, the overall sense of relaxation is very comfortable, suitable for weekend relaxation ~
