Huge brand-new shopping mall! Made it easy to browse, buy, eat and see things unique to Japan and yet familiar to someone from the U.S. - we particularly enjoyed stopping at the food court for dinner, eating a crepe for dessert and then enjoying a traditional hard candy art demonstration further inside of the mall complex. The pictures from this area are also very desirable. If you are in Omiya or the surrounding area and need a place to recharge, I highly recommend checking Cocoon City out.
