TRAVEL GUIDE
Saitama
Little Edo streets and riverside mountain towns
Kawagoe’s old warehouse district offers a glimpse of merchant-town Japan, while Chichibu and Nagatoro are better suited to scenery and outdoor time. The Railway Museum near Omiya adds a different stop for train enthusiasts. Pick the area before planning transfers from Tokyo.
