Kawagoe is a city located in Saitama Prefecture, about 30 kilometers northwest of central Tokyo. Known as "Little Edo" (Ko-Edo), the city preserves much of the architecture and ambiance of the Edo period (1603-1867).
The city's historic warehouse district, called Kurazukuri, features distinctive traditional buildings with clay walls and tiled roofs that were once used by wealthy merchants. A symbol of the city is the Toki no Kane (Bell Tower), which has marked time for residents since the 1600s. Kawagoe's cultural significance is also evident in its traditional crafts and culinary heritage, particularly sweet potatoes, which have been cultivated in the region since the Edo period. The city maintains a balance between preserving its historical character and functioning as a modern Japanese city, making it a notable destination for experiencing Japanese cultural heritage.
