Kawagoe | A 30-Minute Trip from Tokyo to the Edo Period (1)🕑
🌿🌟Besides Kamakura and Hakone, there are actually many lesser-known yet rich in tourist resources places around Tokyo. Kawagoe, which is about an hour's drive from Tokyo, is also a great choice for a day trip! 🌟 🌿🌟Since Kawagoe has preserved some buildings from the Edo period, it doesn't feel like being in the metropolis of Tokyo at all. It's full of freshness. For a specific one-day itinerary, you can refer to the following schedule⬇️ Tokyo various places➡️Ikebukuro (to purchase Kawagoe discount pass)➡️Kawagoe Station ➡️Kita-in Temple (more recommended in spring cherry blossom season, here not only has Somei Yoshino but also some early cherry blossoms) Kumano Shrine⛩️➡️Taisho Roman Yume-do ➡️Kawagoe Ichibangai➡️Time Bell (the iconic building on the street)➡️Hikawa Shrine ➡️Shinano River➡️Bus back to Kawagoe Station➡️Ikebukuro (a must in cherry blossom season, not inferior to Fushimi Momijigari in Kyoto🌸) Basically, it will take most of the day to play along the way, which is very suitable for a one-day itinerary. 🌿🌟 On the way back, you can also take a walk around Ikebukuro, which is very convenient✌️ #Kawagoe 🌿🌟
