Top 39 things to do and attractions in Tokorozawa

Magnificent architecture. The library area is also wonderful. The events were OK, but not worth travelling all the way to Tokorozawa for.

I think it is overrated. For a museum, it should have more content. For a tourist attraction, it should also have more. This place is good for one visit only and it is not for every body.

Absolutely beautiful space with the Kadokawa museum designed by Kengo Kuma. The complex is a bit far from Tokyo and take around 1 hour to arrive. However, the museum itself is well worth the trip. Built with 20,000 granite tiles, each weighing between 50 and 70 kilograms, the museum has 4-5 floors with a manga lounge, beautiful and huge library with tens of thousands of titles, a cafe and different exhibition and chill places. Highly recommended to check this place out if you have time, even if just for this architectural landmark.

Beautiful place to visit with convenience access from Ikebukuro by the Seibu line. It is a great place for book and manga lovers. The restaurant on the fifth floor has an artsy and enjoyable environment, a good place for refreshment.

Wonderful day trip! Perfect spot for a casual date. Lots of very good food and shops. I really enjoyed the book store! They also have wonderful art exhibits and some beautiful Tori Gates. They also have the Borderless exhibit next to it so if you go in the afternoon when it gets dark you go right across the street for some wonderful sights and sounds!

Tokorozawa Sakura town is located in Higashi Tokorozawa, Saitama Prefecture. One evening I felt like going somewhere to enjoy my day, and I found this place. I didn’t know about this Sakura town before. It was a peaceful environment in a beautiful green area. Kadokawa Musashino Museum was a very interesting place to go. It’s a really unique Museum I've ever visited. It has a wonderful library and art gallery that everyone should visit. Actually, you must get tickets before entering all the places, and you can even buy a one-day passport. You can buy tickets at the counter or on their website. I entered Musashino Forest Park too. It was also incredibly beautiful. Not only adults but also children can enjoy it. They Have restaurants and cafes too. Please note that some cafes are closing earlier. The prices of foods were reasonable, and the foods were delicious. Before visiting there, check their website to learn about their holidays. There you can take many pictures, and I think all the pictures I took there were very beautiful. The reason is that the light falling on them is beautiful. If you also want to see a wonderful, quiet area outside of Tokyo, I recommend you go to Sakura Town and enjoy your day.

Unique style of architecture. There it's a metal mesh Tori gate but I believe it will be a full of vines later because they have vibes growing at the base. So I believe this will be nature + modern art. It still is currently in it's soft opening, so a lot of areas are closed. Only cafe, restaurant, mobile cafe, n teamLab is open. Once everything is open, I believed it will be a great area. If you want to go too three museum, makes sure to make reservations, as this is to help limit people in, sure to covid19. This is a great way to prevent further spreading.

This park was a lot more enjoyable than I expected it to be. I came here a few years ago, but it has changed a lot since then. The style of the park turned very retro and the theme made my mother nostalgic. Even though we went on a Thursday, mid June (there were not many people) the employees still performed amazing shows that kept the mood of the park fun. I would definitely recommend going here if you are visiting Japan! (Also, I would recommend going on a weekday, so you can avoid messy lines)

Great amusement park with 8D short film of (Ultraman, Godzilla) , varieties of rides and it was quiet as it was a weekday so no queue for us . The view from the observation tower was beautiful . You just pay for car parking using the parking machine before you enter the amusement park.

Older amusement park and we went to check out Ultraman's movie/ride. For the nostalgia it is a great spot to visit... The cast members performance is 5/5, amazing. They are 100% committed to their roles and love their dedication. When we got there, we were promptly greeted and guided to the right spot. He even offered to take our picture. I wish I had his name... Older gentleman. Most rides were open and some closed and we didn't mind it at all. We went on a weekday and it was pretty empty but worth the trip out. Unfortunately they didn't have the Ultraman and instead had Godzilla movie/ride and that was awesome. It was pretty intense and also loved it.

Had the most fun time at Seibuen! Saw lots of families but also plenty of couples like ourselves (late 20’s) having fun on all the rides! 5 stars as we did have a really fun time and also because the staff there are exceptional! We arrived at about 1ish and went to the ticket desk to purchase tickets and the lady informed us that Godzilla will be starting soon and Ultraman will close in 5 minutes. She asked if we would want to see ultraman and I said we would but that it’s no problem if not (we are bigger Godzilla fans). She spoke to the ride operators and they agreed to hold the ride for us so we could experience Ultraman, we went through the gates and were escorted directly there! 10/10, would never get that service here in the UK!

The 5D movie and the Shouwa Street was pretty cool. It might be an ok place for kids, but I don't think it worth as much for adults considering the ticket price.

Loved it! Very relaxing and nice atmosphere. Time to enjoy all the attractions without the stress of lining for 1hrs. Super main attraction with Ultraman and Godzilla!

A very good place to visit. If you like old Japan.....the 360 4D video in cinema is a surprise. Similar items in Disney land or universal studio require to cue for 1-2hrs. Although not much activities, but I love the atmosphere there. The staff r energetic and nice, even we don't under English. You might spend 4-5 hrs if u come with kid.

I wanted to see something amazing,but it was just normal. The main room is exciting with lots of aircraft displayed. Especially like the ones up above, hanging from the ceiling. Some have stairs to examine the cockpit and one you can climb into for pictures. The history of the airfield is also enjoyable. However they suggest that it is the site of a former aircraft memorabilia stockpile. Where did all that cool stuff go?!? I want to see. Also World War II receives little discussion. Some interactive areas and displays for kids. There are four stamps in the main exhibition hall. Three with various aircraft and one postcard style with five colors. 520 yen entrance fee. Parking free for two hours. The parking lot seemed to have space when I departed in the early afternoon. There also might be free street parking (the signs say no, but lots of cars there).

Tokorozawa Aviation Museum is an excellent place to learn about the history of airplanes and helicopters. The exhibits are very educational and presented in a way that even children can enjoy, making it a very child-friendly environment. The ticket price is low and definitely worth it—I recommend everyone to buy the tickets. Inside, you can even sit inside a real airplane, try an airplane simulation game, and enjoy many more interactive experiences. Overall, it’s one of the best places to visit for both families and aviation enthusiasts.

Small museum but lots of cool aircraft. There’s a sim as well and some other related exhibits like ATC and some aviation history related stuff.

Nice museum but not too big - only 8-9 planes indoor and the Commando outside. Unfortunately, the museum covers only post war planes. So, no Zero and other famous (and brilliant) japanese made planes from WW2. Overall, the ride from DT Tokyo is quite long (90min per way) and I wouldn’t invest that much time for this again.

Amazing!!! Exceeded expectations, great day out for a 43 degree heat outside for families…. It was worth the 3hr drive in heavy traffic to get here I would come back again it’s that good ! Flight simulator, planes to sit in and a movie theater and interactive games and workshops and only ¥840 for adult kids free below 6 years

Good place to visit! The price is cheap around $ 5.7 for adult including the movie theater ticket.

Very nice place with nice collection of aircraft with hands on experience. They have a small movie theatre as well. With the ticket you can have a re-entry as food is not allowed inside. Huge park outside the museum.

Large open park with on display aircraft and numerous monuments and markers detailing Japanese aviation events.

Big and fantastic park in Tokorozawa area. It is very near from Koku koen station on seibu Shinjuku line. It contains free and paid games for kids, wide green areas, aviation museum.

Awesome park with something for everyone. Lots of beautiful old growth trees, fields, running/walking and biking routes, sports fields, basketball courts, large children's playground area, and peaceful gardens/pond, and a few food trucks. Plenty of drinking fountains for people and pets alike throughout the park. We've seen periodical swap/flea market. Multiple parking areas that are free for the first couple hours any day of the week. General park area seems to be accessible 24/7 with free admission.

Big and fantastic park in Tokorozawa area. It is very near from Koku koen station on seibu Shinjuku line.

This park celebrates the first avian runway in Japan. You will encounter various types of aircrafts that are displayed in some open spaces. Those who are not interested in aircraft’s can also enjoy the park. A flight simulator is available.

Very wide open park with an aviation related museum and many other things to see. Nice during cherry blossom season. Parking for fee for cars, but motorcycles can park for free in dedicated parking area next to northern ‘museum’ car parking. Motorcycles can enter to the left (when entering) of the car parking gate. Exit from the same lane.

Very friendly park with lots of facilities, big playgrounds and a water playing area. You can feel local life here quietly.

A wonderful complex that has a modern shrine dedicated to the god of sake, a rock library museum building and a lovely cafe that serves locally grown food. The museum has many sections in addition to the iconic library theatre. There are local archives of the tama area developments, model of a house from the Showa period, manga exhibition, and another theatre showing digital art. One can easily spend a day in this big museum site.

Very neat and informational exhibitions/performances. The vast libraries of Kadokawa light novels and manga were so cool to see gathered in one monolith sized building. Absolutely worth the cost of admission. Also worth noting the museum is surrounded by a venue, the day my group went they had all sorts of food trucks and a concert going on, so there was no shortage of things to be interested in if someone in your traveling group isn’t completely sold on going.

The building is an architectural masterpiece. Its exterior structure, made of imposing granite panels, is stunning and blends modern design with traditional Japanese elements. It features a gigantic library with projection mapping, where the shelves transform into a screen of lights and colors. It also houses a collection focused on Japanese pop culture and a dedicated manga and book library. Sensational!

Kind of far but if you are a fan of Kuma or good architecture, it is well worth the visit. We booked a slot in advance but now think of it, not sure you need it. There is a fabulous Tonkatsu place on the left on the way there.

This place is a great escape from busy Tokyo just an hour away from Tokyo station youll reach this extremely beautiful and big library and also lots of mangga! This incredible museum is one of a sight! Im really glad i come and visit it worth all the travel!

unique architecture. cultural hub with huge library. Great for photos. In the autumn evening sunsets are beautiful

The library and the building are very successful. The reading area is very nice, but if you don't know Japanese, there is nothing to do except wander around!

This was a nice park to take a stroll through or ride a bike. Its nice and quiet so its great place for a picnic or to allow your children play. There's not a whole lot of playground equipment but there is some. Also there's a beautiful view of Sayama lake. It doesn't cost anything to enter so its a nice free trip. And just in case your wondering, you can't access that bridge with the pointy building. It seems to belong to the water company. I recommend this park if you're in the area.

Sayama Lake, originally called Yamaguchi Lake, is a man-made reservoir that was built using an earthen dam, which was completed in 1929. Due to a lack of heavy earth-moving equipment in Japan at that time, the dam was constructed mostly by farmers who used picks and shovels. The majority of the workers were farmers hired to do the work after the growing season had come to a close. A total of 1,720 villagers were forced to leave their homes to make way for the dam as demand for fresh water increased with a population explosion in Tokyo. During WWII, the embankment of the dam was reinforced with ballistic-resistant concrete and the towers were reinforced with a bullet-proof exterior as measures against the Tokyo air raids. The design of the intake towers was heavily influenced by the trends of western architecture that were poplar in Japan in the early 20th century, as can be seen by the use of red bricks on the exterior, copper roofing, and artistic design elements above the doorway to the tower's interior. Although the bridge is currently painted white, early color photos from many decades ago show a bridge painted in a copper-red coat of paint, which makes it look like a miniature version of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. On the occasion that the reservoir is partially drained for maintenance work on the water intake towers, remnants of the villages that were submerged can still be seen. Since the reservoir is used to provide fresh water to the residents of Tokyo, the lake itself is off limits to any human activity in the water: no swimming, no boating, no fishing, etc. The hills surrounding the lake are also off limits. Except for the promenade running across the top of the dam, high fencing with several bands of barbwire encircle the rest of the hills that feed water into the lake. The lack of human access has created a small oasis of natural habitat where various species of insects, birds, mammals and flora can flourish. ★★Check out the Pix4Japan YouTube channel for a short video highlighting the vibe of this location.★★

This place is worth visiting! Its view is pleasing to the eye and so relaxing. I wrote about this on my blog (thepinayajumma.com). Please check it out. I would have given it a 5-star rate if it wasn’t for the accessibility. It’s accessible by train but tricky to get there from the station. I think more English signs should be put up for clear guidance.

I really like this place. It's a place for cycling, a place to take photos, sit and admire the view, and relax. I came here to bike 20 kilometers with a friend. Alone but I don't feel lonely at all.

I did'nt plan to visit here, but the view is stunning..i actually wanted to visit Totoro Forrest, but it too far away, so I ended up here

Best place to visit you can have family picnic I want to visit again and again and again I always got Lôšt with nature.

Wow

A few areas had been closed when we visited for logging older trees so it was a lot of a smaller trail than we expected. Make sure to take a drink with you and pa e yourself as some of the inclines are very steep.

Hidden in the wooded folds of Sayama Hills lies a network of small forest parcels known as the Totoro Forests (トトロの森). Quiet paths weave through mossy ground, oak and cedar trees, and gentle slopes, carrying a sense of old Japan that has become rare around Tokyo’s edge. The forests are not vast, but each plot whispers its own story — of nature under threat, of community action, and of restoration. In 1990, local environmentalists and supporters — led by Hayao Miyazaki — established a foundation to protect what remained of these woods. Over the years, they purchased dozens of forest sites, preserving them from development and neglect. Today, these woodland patches are maintained as small sanctuaries: trails guide visitors around, yet the interior remains untouched; rules and respect are essential to keep them whole. Despite its fame among Ghibli fans, Totoro Forest is not a theme park. It is a conservation project first, a living example of how small, persistent efforts can protect nature at the fringe of urban sprawl.

If you are a fan of Studio Ghibli’s movies and the beauty of Japanese nature, the Totoro Forest in Saitama will be a destination you don’t want to miss. Just one hour from Tokyo's center by train or bus, you will find yourself being immersed in the generosity of mother nature. A deep forest with beautiful lakes, a vast sky and thousands of amazing living creatures awaits you.

Extravagant forest to hike around in. Would recommend going here if you're looking to go on an outdoor adventure.

Appreciated Totoro foundation takes a long time and huge amount of money to preserve this peaceful forest for us, we spend a sunny and peaceful afternoon there, lovely 😍

A forest named after Totoro. very nice to walk or bike around . You can hear a lot of birds singing. It’s also very close to a beautiful lake. I was expecting to see Totoro tho.

Totoro's forest is a nice place to explore. Experience nature, fresh air, the greens and life. Into the woods, you'd be drawn to Totoro's world. Before going to the forest, we dropped by Totoro's house. There you'll find souvenirs to help the Totoro Trust Fund when you buy to preserve the forest.

So amazing, everything there is awesome. I went there by accident, but I really appreciate the chance to hang around there.

A unique Kannon temple reminiscent of Southern China. Remarkable ornamentation, especially the undulating iron dragons spanning the hill. You can pray to all seven lucky gods here, “feed” the horse a carrot votive tablet and spin Tibetan prayer wheels.

Really beautiful small temple complex just off of Lake Tama. There are some really beautiful dragon statues & an impressive collection of Buddhas!

Really cool temple area. Great spot for taking pictures and walking around.

Supposedly founded by Kobo Daishi. We couldn’t go in to see the famous Kannon. Very extensive grounds. We were too tired to take the stairs to see the pagoda. Maybe next time.

Enjoyable shrine complex with unique dragon fence, pagoda nearby, and frog pond.

One of the great temple I've came to so far, and the best is it's near my place

Went to see the team lab installation and it was just magical ❤️ During this winter season, you'll be able to see them light up from 4:30-5PM onwards. Only con I see would be the slightly pricey entrance fee (right now it's 1200円). One should also try out the tea at the shop right in front!

Outdoor teamlabs exhibit. If you only do one of their sites, I would recommend one of the bigger ones, but if you're near Tokorozawa or if you're really into teamlabs, this one is worth checking out.

The permanent light installation by TeamLab is quite small, but interesting nonetheless! The oval shaped objects represent acorns which was the main food staple for the Jomon people during Jomon period. I think the colors are much better in the evening but if you plan to explore the park, afternoons may be better.

Acorn forest with dreamy artworks! Really enjoyed team lab’s unique presentation. It was a very small exhibition but the photos looked stunning & fabulous. Similar exhibitions are available on other cities of Japan as well but this one is very close to Tokyo. Easily accessible by car or train. This is a perfect place for holiday outing with FnF. ‘Entrance fee’ seemed pricey to me. One should reach here at least 30 minutes before sunset to experience 2 views of this small acorn forest.

A kids park near Tokorozawa sakura town kabokawa cultural museum. Beautiful park with various items. Kids like this

A really big park with many tennis courts and a baseball ground.

really beautiful at night, especially with TeamLAB's installation there

Absolutely delightful dome. The fact it’s open air on the sides brings in fresh air and can offer a slight breeze. The seats were wide and very comfortable, bathrooms and concessions were easy to locates and lines were short. The team store is outside the ticketed area so if you go during the game make sure to bring your ticket for reentry to the game.

Much bigger than it looks from the outside. The open air dome concept is awesome! Nice field and comfortable seats as well. Lots of food options and the train station is literally right next to the stadium. PRO TIP- buy a limited express ticket for your departure prior to the game.

TRAVIS SCOTT concert was a MOVIE!! Floor standing was great, had a perfect view of the stage.

shouldve gave platinum ppl better merch and shit tbh, concert was lit tho

Covered dome but not a fully enclosed stadium so lots of fresh air. Went to watch the Lions play. What great baseball and better fans. Super fun!!

Belluna Dome in Saitama holds a special place in my heart as the venue for the unforgettable Lady Gaga concert I attended in Japan. The acoustics were exceptional, amplifying every note and creating an immersive experience for the audience. The setting itself was stunning, with a spacious layout that allowed for seamless movement and excellent visibility from every angle. Additionally, the venue's convenient location and direct transport options made it easily accessible for fans coming from different parts of Japan. It's not just a concert venue; it's a place where music transcends boundaries and creates lasting memories for fans like me.

Fun stadium but it's a bit out of the way. It's a trek to get to from Kanagawa, but there is good food and beer here. I recommend bringing a fan because it's stuffy under the roof. There is ample parking about an 8 minute walk, but the train station exit is at the gates to the stadium. The stadium takes credit card at basically every kiosk and there are plenty of bathrooms. The atmosphere for the game was alright, but not stellar. It's worth the trip if you want to see the Lions play.

we enjoyed our time in the sayama ski resort but we only stayed in the snow park since we have kids. Definitely a good option for families near Tokyo.

It is an indoor ski resort located at Tokorozawa which is not too far away from Tokyo. It is a great spot to go to if you can’t wait to snowboard but all other resorts are not open yet. It is not crowded during the weekday and the snow condition feels like spring slushy snow which is good for beginner as well.

Review coming from a beginner. The service is pretty good but the length of ski is rather short. The ice is not so soft so hurts a bit when you are doing for the first time and keep falling, but as you get the hang of it, it's fun. Rental service available 4200 yen for clothes shoes and board. 3100 for 4 hour pass. Overall if someone wants to experience skiing without going to a mountain it's great.

Service was amazing and so was the rentals. Only problem was that it was just too much money I spent 10,000 yen for a day pass and rentals this may not seem much but in japan this could buy like 2 weeks worth of groceries. Slope was great but there isn't much room for beginners like myself and considering that there were highly skilled people it made it hard to get the feel off it. Overall this place is great but there are better options in turns of price.

it's good place for begginer, but junk for locker! careful not to forget anything once you open it you need to pay to close it.but it doesn't written they gonna said only to you is sumimasen!!!

Good place to learn skiing, the snow isn't the best but okay. Please take the course if possible if you've never ski before because the first time i tried i flew off like a star

I don’t know if this place is more crowded on holidays/weekends but we went on a regular weekday and it was very empty. No waiting line for anything. This place is good for absolute beginners to get a feel for the snow and get the basic knowledge of snowboarding or skiing. Not recommended for higher level skiers, as it doesn’t offer any challenge at all.

Amazing place! The staff is so nice and kind. You have to book in advance and the entrance fee is 500 yen in cash. There is a huge totoro sitting in the house and you can take pictures of it. There are also activities like treasure finding and making an art piece (500 yen) They ask to not post pictures online of the house. I recommend this place to whoever wants to spend a chill afternoon!

The forest path does not exist, it is just covered by plants and absolutely unmantained, no path there 100 m after the start, Totoro forest can not be visited. They give you a map, but there's nothing there. How's that?

was great to see the inspiration for Totoro! a couple of things to do here but would not be great for young children as it’s mostly just looking around. Also did the walk up Hira hill which was nice if a little difficult to navigate. If you get to the end there’s a nice place to watch the sunset from.

This place is famous for feeling like you've stepped into the world of Totoro. I only got to see it from the outside this time, so I definitely want to check out the inside next time.

It would have been great to see the giant Totoro. But it only opens on Tuesday Wednesday and Saturday.. Make sure to check the calendar before you go. It’s some walking from the station .

Great place if you really are into Totoro!

Nice traditional Japanese house!! And, really tasty Japanese green tea shop in front of Kurosuke's house. Shop owners are so kind for us!

Small museum that's well-maintained, with a little shop inside. The permanent exhibition cost ￥200 to view, whereas any occasional special exhibitions cost extra. There's a science room for kids to explore, a section about the history and geography of Iruma and it's surrounding areas, as well as a floor about tea. Everything is in Japanese, but it's a nice place to spend a rainy morning or afternoon.

Larger and more interactive than most local history museums. 200 yen entry fee. The first room has some fun optical illusions and science experiments. Next is wildlife both past and present. Then several areas with history of the area. Last room is about green tea.

Family friendly museum in Iruma with a big focus on tea. One of the few tea museums in the world. The ground floor (1st floor) is mainly free to peruse and play in. The upper floor where the tea exhibits are costs 200 yen for adults and 50 yen for children. They hold a number of free events as well as ones that you have to pay for. You can try your hand at the Japanese tea ceremony a couple of times a month. They have a great "experience area" for kids with Japanese traditional toys and crafts available on the weekend. There is a tea shop and restaurant on site. Parking is free and plentiful. Close to Costco and Mitsui Outlet in Iruma. By public transport you need to get a bus from Iruma station on the seibu ikebukuro line.

Nice exhibits. Staff very friendly.

(Translated by Google) Admission is 200 yen, but it is free for those 65 and older, and JAF discounts are also available. In addition to the standard exhibits, there is a separate exhibition corner themed around tea, which is recommended for learning about Iruma and tea. The terraces are clearly visible from the museum grounds, giving a good idea of Iruma's topography. (Original) 入場料200円ですが65歳以上無料かつJAF優待も使えます。 定番の展示に加えてお茶をテーマにした展示コーナーが別にあり入間とお茶を知るにはオススメです。博物館の敷地から段丘が良く見えて入間の地形がよくわかります。

(Translated by Google) It's worth the 200 yen. The exhibits and the knowledge of the staff are excellent. I found it interesting that the land around the museum is well-drained, has a low risk of disasters, and is suitable for residential use, and that the museum is unhappy with people from the nearby high school using its parking lot. (Original) ¥200払う価値があります。展示内容、スタッフさんの知識量、素晴らしいです。 博物館周辺の土地は水捌けがよく災害リスクが低く宅地に適していること、隣接する高校の関係者に駐車場を使われて嫌々しているという話は面白かったです。

(Translated by Google) It is about 5 minutes walk from Kumano Shrine. I visited the museum on its opening day. There was indeed a sign at the entrance stating the opening date, so when I entered the premises and rang the doorbell several times, no one answered. I could faintly see from the outside that there was a Noh mask displayed right after entering the entrance. The front door was open, so I peeked my head inside to check, but no one was there. The lights were off at the entrance where the Noh masks were displayed. I couldn't just enter the door anymore, so I rang the doorbell one last time, but no one answered, so I gave up and went home. I don't know if it was a mistake or something, but it's a shame that I couldn't watch it. (Original) 熊野神社から徒歩5分位です。 開館日の日に足を運びました。 確かに開館日と案内書きが入り口にございましたので、敷地に入り呼び鈴を何回か鳴らしても誰も出ず。 玄関入ってすぐの所に能面が飾られていたのは外からうっすら確認出来ました。 玄関が開けたので、頭だけ内部を覗きこむようにして確認しましたが、誰もおらず。 能面が飾ってある入り口は電気が消えてました。 これ以上勝手に入るわけにもいかないので、最後にもう一度呼び鈴鳴らしましたが、やはり誰も出なかったので、諦めて帰りました。 何かの手違いなのかは分かりませんが、観れず残念な限りです。

(Translated by Google) This is an art museum that also serves as the studio of contemporary Noh mask artist Motosei Fukuyama. There are apparently very few museums dedicated to Noh masks in Japan. It was previously displayed at Nagayamon, an old folk house said to have been built at the end of the Edo period, but it was moved to its current location after the building was demolished. There used to be about 60 Noh masks on display, but now there are about 20 on display. Admission fee is ¥300. Please note that tours are only available on the 1st and 3rd Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 11:00 to 16:00. All the Noh masks were wonderful and powerful, and Mr. Fukuyama explained them to us. It is said that taking photos is not allowed, but as long as the Noh mask is not taken alone and the Noh mask is reflected in the background, it is okay. (Original) 現代能面作家、福山元誠さんの工房を兼ねた美術館です。 国内でも能面の美術館は少ないそうです。 以前は幕末に建てられたといわれる古民家長屋門で展示されていましたが建物の取壊しに伴い現在の場所に来たそうです。 以前は60ほどの能面が展示されていたそうですが現在は20ほどの展示になってました。 入館料は￥300です。 第1, 3 金、土、日曜日 11:00-16:00しか見学は出来ないので注意 能面はどれも素晴らしく迫力が有り福山先生が説明もしてくださいました。 写真撮影はダメだそうですが能面単体撮影じゃなければ背景に能面が映るような撮影なら大丈夫だそうです。

(Translated by Google) It happened to be the opening day, so I stopped by. There was a Noh mask making class being held, so I listened to a little talk and was just blown away. I want to go see Ikkaku Sennin! (Original) たまたま開館日だったのでお邪魔しました。 能面作成の教室が開かれていたのでちょっとお話しを聞かせていただいて、ひたすらヘェ～でした。 一角仙人を観に行きたくなりました！

(Translated by Google) Have you moved? It was not in a nagaya gate, but inside an ordinary house. (Original) 引っ越されたのでしょうか？ 長屋門ではなく、一般住宅の中にありました。

(Translated by Google) Many Noh masks full of spirit and amazing quality (Original) 気迫 溢れた 能面 多数 圧巻良い

This is the new culture center. It is part of Sakura town and is located across the street from the main area. It is a nice little quiet spot for a cup of coffee. There is a small cafe inside. There are also local products of Tokorozawa. For example; beer, Sayama tea, coffee, sweets, bakery, and produce. I had the coffee from the cafe, it was decent for your local cafe. There were other things on the menu, but I couldn't read it as it was all in Japanese. So, I just did what I normally do, order an ice coffee. For those who gave it a lower rating, I'm not sure why because it is a cultural center of the city. It's not supposed to be an entertainment area. It represents the local goods and culture of the area. However, I will say that they could've done more with the land. It had so much more potential.

A souvenir shop with a pokemon manhole cover! Local tea leaves can be found as a gift! Mini festivals can also be found occasionally with local students very good performance 🎶

Nice place to park the car and do a little shopping.

(Translated by Google) I went in to buy souvenirs from Tokorozawa. Parking is free for 30 minutes with camera verification. I got 1 hour free because I did some shopping ^_^ I bought panda udon and Sayama tea. (Original) 所沢の土産を買いに入りました。駐車場はカメラ認証で30分無料です。買い物をしたので1時間無料でした^_^ パンダうどんと狭山茶を買いました。

(Translated by Google) Visited for the special sale of Misawa Foods. The store was full of Sayama tea, and I bought two types and Musashino udon, but as I was driving around Sayama, I saw a lot of tea farmers selling tea as well. I was also curious about that. The store clerk had a pleasant customer service with a smile. (Original) 見澤食品の特設販売目当てで来館 店内では狭山茶だらけ、2種類と武蔵野うどんを購入しましたが、狭山をドライブしているとお茶農家さんも沢山あり販売も行なっている。 そちらも気になった。 店員さんは笑顔での気持ちの良い接客でした。

(Translated by Google) [Meals] ⭐︎5 Is this the restaurant recommended by Tokorozawa Tourism Ambassador Audrey Kasuga? This shop is often shown on TV, and its stone oven cream puffs are the most popular. This time, I stopped by to buy a cake for my family. I bought Basque cheesecake, rare cheese, Mont Blanc, etc., and I had Basque. The special sweetness and flavor of the cheesecake, which had a slight bitterness to it, was amazing! The sweetness may be due to the sweetness compared to various other shops, but I personally like sweets, so it was very good. I think it depends on your taste, and since I only ate cheesecake, it might be different for others. If you only want cheesecake, it's a generous ⭐︎5. [Service] ⭐︎5 Although it feels a little expensive, I don't think it's a loss at all considering the deliciousness. Also, regarding the cream puffs, which are the best selling item, I think they are very reasonable considering they are on sale. [Atmosphere] ⭐︎4 It feels like a small and cute Western confectionery shop. If it's crowded, waiting inside the store may be a little difficult. It's hard to tell, but I thought there was only a few parking spaces right next to the store, but there was a parking lot on the other side of the road. The store staff will also be kind to you. (Original) 【食事】⭐︎５ 所沢観光大使のオードリー春日さん推しのお店でしょうか。 よく、TVでも放映され、石窯のシュークリームが1番人気のお店です。 今回、家族にケーキを買っていくのに寄らせていただきました。 バスクチーズケーキやらレアチーズ、モンブラン等を購入させていただき、自分はバスクをいただきました。 ほんの少しほろ苦さがあるなかのチーズケーキ特製の甘さと旨味が最高でした！ 甘さは様々な他店と比べるとどちらかというと甘めによるのかもですが、スイーツの甘めは個人的に好きなのでとてもgoodでした。 この辺りは好みによると思いますし、食べたのがチーズケーキのみなので、他は違うかも知れません。 チーズケーキのみなら余裕の⭐︎５です。 【サービス】⭐︎５ ややお高いかな感はあるものの、この美味しさなら値段的には全然損失感ないと思います。 また、1番売りであるシュークリームに関しては、売りにしてる割にとてもリーズナブルだと思います。 【雰囲気】⭐︎４ こぢんまりしてる可愛らしい洋菓子屋さんって感じです。 混んでると店内待ちが少々辛く感じるかもです。 わかりづらいですが、駐車場は店真横の数台だけかと思いきや、道路挟んだ反対側に割と駐車場があります。 店員さんも親切に対応してくださいます。

(Translated by Google) This is a memorable cake shop that I have been using for celebrations and snacks since I was in elementary school. It's very stylish and I think it's something Tokorozawa is proud of. This time, we had two orders made to order: a pregnancy announcement cake and a gender announcement cake. For the gender report cake, we were able to arrange the fruit on the top and specify the contents of the cake. Both cakes were very beautiful and very cute, and I had a wonderful time with my family. I never thought that the cake shop I had been going to since I was in elementary school would take care of me even as I prepared to become a mother! And I was really happy and touched by the fact that I had to ask so many questions about how difficult it was for me! My grandmother was also there for the gender reveal, so I put a sugar doll from Cozy Corner on top to make it easier to see, but the cake was cute enough without it. (Original) 小学生の頃からお祝い事やおやつでお世話になっている思い出深いケーキ屋さんです。 とってもおしゃれで所沢の自慢と思っております。 今回、妊娠報告ケーキと性別報告ケーキの2回、オーダーメイドでお願いさせていただきました。 性別報告ケーキは上の果物の配置やケーキの中身の指定までご対応いただきました。 どちらもとても綺麗なケーキでとっても可愛くて、家族で素敵な時間を過ごさせていただけました。 小学生から通っていたケーキ屋さんにじぶんが母親になる準備でもお世話になるとは！ そしてご無理もたくさん聞いていただくことになるとは…本当にしみじみでとっても嬉しかったです！ 祖母も性別報告の場にいたので、分かりやすいようコージーコーナーのシュガードールを乗せておりますが、なくても十分かわいいケーキでした。

(Translated by Google) I went on White Day, and it was extremely crowded. I thought the prices for White Day products were a little high. The cake is reasonably priced, so I would like to try it next time. I gave it 3 stars because of the high price. At this price, you can eat more expensive and delicious food. (Original) ホワイトデーに行ったんですが、ものすごく混んでました。 ホワイトデーの商品は価格は少し高めかなと思いました。 ケーキはそこそこの価格なんで、今度試してみたいと思います。 価格が高めという意味で星3にしました。 この価格ならもっと高級で美味しいものも食べられる為。

(Translated by Google) I come here every year for my child's birthday. The cream puffs are also delicious (*´∀｀*) The cakes are very tasty and not too sweet, so you can eat them all up. The inside of the store is a little small, so you can't get in when there are a lot of people. I hope they bring back the 3D cakes. They're amazing and of high quality. (Original) 子供の誕生日、毎年きます。シュークリームも、美味しいです(*´∀｀*) ケーキとても、美味しくて、甘すぎないので、パクパク食べられます。 店の中は、少し狭いので、人がたくさんいるときは、はいれません。 立体ケーキ復活してほしいです。クオリティ高くてすごいです。

The stone oven choux pastry was also very delicious with a crispy crust and fluffy cream. (Original) 誕生日用にチョコのホールケーキを購入しました。とっても濃厚でオシャレで喜んで貰えました。石窯シューも皮のサクッ、クリームのフワッがとても美味しいです。

(Translated by Google) I bought three different cakes today. Maybe the flavor has changed, but the sweetness was too strong and I couldn't finish them all. I remember them being delicious before... It's a shame they're so expensive... (Bear cake, 600 yen) They also have printed cakes, and my kids want them, so I've used them for birthdays twice in the past. They looked great and my son was thrilled, but even then, the taste was mediocre. The sponge was dry and overly sweet. I had no choice but to buy them because my son wanted them, but he couldn't finish even half of the peace cake I bought today, so I won't be buying them again.^^; This is a long-established shop and I used to buy their delicious cream puffs often, but their cakes have become so-so. It's a shame, because I liked this shop... They also have a location at Emiterase. I heard that it's run by retired staff, so I'll try that one next time. (Original) ケーキを3種類今日購入しました。 味が変わったのか甘さがしつこく完食できませんでした。 以前は美味しかった記憶なんですが… 値段がそれなりにするので残念です… (くまさんケーキ600円) プリントケーキもあり子供が欲しがるので過去2回誕生日で利用させていただいたこともあります。 見た目はとても良く息子も大喜びでしたが、その時も味はイマイチ。 スポンジはパサパサでしつこい甘さ 息子が欲しがるのでしかたなく買っていましたが、 今日買ったピースケーキ息子が半分も食べれ無かったので今後は買わないですね^^; 昔からあるお店でシュークリームが美味しく良く買っていましたがケーキはイマイチになってます。 好きなお店だったので残念です… エミテラス店にも出店しており そちらはリタイアしたスタッフでやっていると聞いたので今度はそっちを試してみようと思います。

(Translated by Google) 2025.01.01 This is Saitama Prefecture... I could clearly see Mt. Fuji. Climb Arahata Fuji on the way back from Sayama Lake Dam (first sunrise)! Super crowded (^-^; (Original) 2025.01.01 ココは埼玉県… 富士山がクッキリ見えました。 狭山湖ダム(初日の出)の帰りに荒畑富士へ登頂！ 激混み(^-^;

(Translated by Google) It's not that big, but there are many gazebos and benches. There are also a lot of mosquitoes. 2025/6/4 (Original) それほど広くないけど、東屋やベンチが多数。蚊も大量。2025/6/4

(Translated by Google) I think this is the best place in this area (Tokorozawa, Iruma, Kawagoe, Kiyose, Higashikurume, etc.) to see the view of Mt. Fuji. There is a large shrine of a splendid shrine on this site, and an ``observatory'' like a small hill was built right next to it with the cooperation of the local people at the time. It looks a little taller than a child's imagination, but it was built by hand a long time ago, so if you take that into consideration when climbing, your perspective will change a bit. When you climb to the top, you will be surprised to see a huge 360 ​​degree panoramic view! The day was May 28, 2021, so it was practically the start of the rainy season, so it wasn't a clear day and it was almost cloudy, but I could clearly see Mt. Fuji with the naked eye! ! ! (It seems that the photo cannot be taken unless you zoom in) As I mentioned at the beginning, as mentioned in the reviews, there are countless so-called, "A place where you can see Mt. Fuji" I think this is the place with the best view in this area. There is also ``DoReMi Hill'' nearby, where you can spread out your lunch and relax, so it's a relaxing way to spend time hiking. On that day, I didn't know where the nearby parking lot was, so I went to the Saitama Prefecture Sayama Hills Ikimono Fureai no Sato Center counter, which has jurisdiction over this area, to ask about the location of the parking lot, but they didn't respond. I would like to add that the staff members were very kind. However, when I came to see it on a clear day on June 12th, I couldn't see it at all 💧 It's the same on other days 💧 Basically it's hard to see 💧 I think it really depends on luck 💧 (Original) 富士山の眺望を見るにあたっては、この界隈(所沢、入間、川越、清瀬、東久留米等々)の中ではベストな場所と思います。 こちらの敷地内には立派な神社の大きな祠が有りまして、その真横に当時の地元の方々の協力を得て小高い丘のような『展望台』が造られました。 見た目はちょっと子供騙しな高さなのですが相当昔に人力で造られた経緯が有るのでソレを踏まえて登りますと、ちょっと見る目も変わります。 上まで登ると、そこにはなんと360度見渡す事が出来る大パノラマになっていてビックリ！ 当日は2021/5/28なので実質は、ほぼ梅雨入りしたも同然でしたから快晴ではなく曇りに近い状況でしたが肉眼では『富士山』がくっきり見れました！！！(写メはズームにしないと写らないようです) 冒頭でもお伝えしましたがクチコミにも有る様に無数にある巷の、いわゆる、 『富士山を見る事が出来る場所』 の中でも、この界隈では1番眺めの良い場所と思います。 近くには『ドレミの丘』も有るので、そこでは昼食時に弁当を広げて寛げますのでハイキングがてら過ごすのも癒やしですね。 当日は近隣の駐車場の場所が分からないため近くに有りました、こちらを管轄区域とされる埼玉県狭山丘陵いきものふれあいの里センター窓口にて駐車場の場所を聞きに行きましたが対応された職員さんが大変親切でした事を追記したく思います。 しかしながら6/12快晴に来て見たら、まったく見えません💧他の日も同様💧基本的にはなかなか見れない💧かなり運に左右されると思います💧

(Translated by Google) It's an enclave of Sayama Hills near Lake Sayama in Tokorozawa City, and (as you can see if you look at the location on Google Maps) it's like a park in the middle of a residential area. It is very well maintained, and you can see some explanations at the center (in a separate section). Since it is just part of the Sayama Hills, the height difference is quite dramatic. Arahata Fuji, located on the premises, has a spectacular view and is worth a visit. (Original) 所沢市の狭山湖近隣にある狭山丘陵の飛び地なようなところで、（グーグルマップで場所をご覧いただければおわかりの通り）住宅地のど真ん中にある公園のようなところです。とてもよく整備されていて、同地のセンター（別項目に存在）でちょっとした解説が見られます。あくまで狭山丘陵の一部なので高低差は結構激しいです。敷地内にある荒幡富士は眺望抜群で一見の価値ありです。

(Translated by Google) I think local volunteers are probably taking the lead in keeping things tidy. My head is down. The promenade is well-maintained, with benches and benches set up here and there. Personally, I like the feeling of walking through a forest. However, the greenery is too deep and it feels like a ``forest'' with little wind and sunlight. (Original) 恐らく、地域の有志の方々が中心となって、整理整頓をされていることと思います。頭が下がります。遊歩道が、整備されており、所々にベンチや四阿が設けられています。まさに“森”の中を歩くという感じが、個人的には好きです。ただ、緑が深すぎて、風の通り具合や陽射しの入り具合が、少ない“森”であるようにも感じられます。

(Translated by Google) This is a forest where you can fully enjoy the nature of Tokorozawa. You can enjoy the chirping of birds, insects, and wild plants. I think it's good for a walk or a change of pace, and it's also a valuable place where you can expose your children to nature. (Original) 所沢の自然を満喫できる森です。 小鳥のさえずりや虫、山草などを満喫することができます。 散歩や気分転換にも良いと思いますし、子供を自然に触れさせることができる貴重な場所でもあります。

I always love to come here to making my mood.

Not the river for cherry blossom viewing!

Wonderful place..

Nice place

(Translated by Google) It's a great place for a walk or run. Be careful as the river will overflow at spring tide! (Original) 散歩やランニングには最高の場所です。 大潮になると川の水が溢れて来るので気をつけて!

(Translated by Google) It was a very beautiful place It was also lit up The parking lot was reasonable at 100 yen for 30 minutes, but considering how full the parking lot in front of me was, it seemed like there was no parking nearby. I also visited Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine. (Original) とても　綺麗なところでした ライトアップもされていました 駐車場も　30分100円で良心的でしたが　目の前のパーキング何満車だと　近くにはパーキングは無さそうな雰囲気でした ついでに　川越氷川神社にはお参りしてきました

(Translated by Google) It's quiet and very relaxing (Original) 静かで、とても落ち着きます

Totally polluted oil slick waters from nearly all waters here in park. The ones without oil, had a thick sludge of pond scum throughout the water. Poor birds and fish.

It’s a very nice park to spend your time. I jogged around the park and enjoyed people watching. Lots of parents brought their children dressed in their best to the shrine. The pond is currently under maintenance- no water. There’s one thing that bothers me a lot- all the animals at the zoo looks so sad to the point I can feel their sadness and frustrations. 😥😥😥😭😭

Very good place for relaxing and having some picnics. But sometimes have big black bird that wants to eat your food so please be careful.

Snaps from today (04/06) Bloom at its peak 🌸 Beautiful full bloom Sakura and lots of food stalls. We can have food and enjoy Hanami 🌸♥️

Went on 22Mar, Sakura was in full bloom and picnic is definitely the best way to enjoy the beauty. Crowd starts to come in from noon, by late evening it got really crowded. Bonus, there was a playground, free mini zoo and a small amusement park. It kept the kids occupied the whole day in the park.

An amazing open space park, located next to a lake and temple. Lots of open dirt areas to sit under the cherry blossoms in Spring, as per my photos. The paths were lined with lots of street food and festival games. The park can become extremely busy.

Absolutely beautiful park with so much too see and do. You can just stroll through and read about the various trees or visit one of the many event spaces; including archery, cycling, soccer, baseball, etc. There's even a free zoo. I thoroughly enjoy Omiya Park and I think you will too.

This is a shrine with a history. And it has another shrine called, "Torikoshi shrine" which is for the aeroplane.

I’ve celebrated new years here many times. It’s great, local and festive. Just wondered

A very good local shrine that's not crowded like the big ones

A lovely shrine with deep historic significance. More people should know about it. THE main shrine to worship Amaterasu in the Kanto region. Must be great fun during the festivals.

Good festival it was

Honored

(Translated by Google) Tokorozawa Shinmeisha Shrine is a shrine deeply rooted in Tokorozawa, the birthplace of Japan's aviation culture. Tokorozawa Airfield opened in April 1911 as Japan's first airport, and Tokugawa Yoshitoshi, the pilot of the first flight there, made an official pilgrimage there the day before, along with several other people involved. Today, the shrine is visited by many people, particularly those praying for the safety of aircraft and the skies. (Original) 所澤神明社は、日本の航空文化発祥の地 「所沢」に根付く神社です。 明治44年（1911年）4月に日本最初の飛行場として開設された所沢飛行場において、その初飛行のパイロットとなった徳川好敏が前日に関係者数名とともに正式参詣したことから、今日では特に飛行機と空の安全に関する祈願のために参拝客も訪れています。

Good facilities with Onsen close to, but gaming center seems getting old!

Good👍

Ok

(Translated by Google) This complex offers a variety of sports experiences, as well as a car wash and hot spring facilities. We visited around 9:00 AM on a Saturday in early November 2014. The driving range, kick target, strikeout court, and car wash were open, but our destinations, the bowling and batting cages, didn't open until 10:00 AM, so we decided to wait a bit. The bowling alley has many lanes, so players aren't packed in tightly, which was great because we could play without worrying about the people next to us. Our family of five enjoyed two hours of unlimited bowling for 2,200 yen per hour, playing three games. It was a great deal compared to the regular price. You can rent bowling shoes for 300 yen. I recommend bowling. It's true that the various facilities are aging, and the kick target (soccer) area was disappointing because there weren't enough balls and the air pressure was insufficient. The futsal court was also flooded by the rain. We didn't use the hot springs, but there were many cars parked there, so I imagine it's popular. Some of the facilities are inadequate, but I think anyone junior high school age or younger would have plenty of fun. (Original) 様々なスポーツ体験のほか、洗車や温泉設備がある複合施設です。 R6.11初旬土曜日午前９時頃に伺いました。 ゴルフの打ちっ放し、キックターゲット、ストラックアウトや洗車は開店していましたが、私達の目的であるボーリングやバッティングセンターは１０時からの営業でしたので、少し待つことにしました。 ボーリング場はレーン数が多いので、詰めてレーンを与えられないため、隣の方を気にせずにプレイできて良かったですね。家族５人で１時間２２００円の投げ放題を２時間プレイし３ゲーム楽しみました。通常料金に比べるとお得ですね。靴は３００円で借りることができます。 ボーリングはオススメです。 確かに様々な施設が老朽化しており、キックターゲット(サッカー)はボールの数も足りなければ空気圧も足りないので残念です。 フットサル場も雨で冠水…。 温泉施設は使用したことはありませんが、沢山の車両が駐車していましたので人気があると思います。 一部施設は不十分ですが、中学生以下であれば十分に楽しむことが出来ると思います。

(Translated by Google) I batted for the first time in a wheelchair. I was very happy that all of the batting stations were wheelchair accessible. It was a comfortable, fun experience working up a sweat and leaving me feeling refreshed. There is a ramp to enter the batting center, and I was even more pleased and grateful that they even provided hand towels for after training. The parking lot is spacious, and although there is no wheelchair access, the doors can be opened all the way on the sides and there is no problem getting in and out. I've found a great place. I'll visit again. (Original) 車いすで初めてバッティングを行いました。 全ての打席が車いすでも行えることがとても嬉しかったです。 気持ち良く、楽しく汗を流せて、爽快な気分になれました。 バッティングセンター入り口はスロープで入れて、トレーニング後、お手拭きまでご用意くださっているのがさらに嬉しく感謝をしました。 駐車場も広く、車いす用はありませんが、端であればドアが全開に出来、乗り降りも問題ありません。 とても良い場所を知ることが出来ました。 また伺います。

Beautiful place with gorgeous views, even in poor weather... would be nice if there were a couple shelters on the walk along the lake though!

Lovely view of Mount Fuji on a clear day. Clean and quiet- I think it’s a good place to just chill and enjoy the scenery.

Best palace to visit ... its amazing.! Visited many times want to go there. What a peaceful place. Best of the best.!

Breathtaking sight! What you get to see is the amazing horizon where the sky meets the see. From here, you can also see Mt. Fuji. People gather here to take photos or to just see the beautiful scene.

Nice park with a beautiful view and easy to reach from Tokyo.

Nice and relaxing place for a walk beside the water lakes. Or ride a bicycle

Beautiful area for jogging and relaxing despite all the long grass and insects in the area. I recommend going there just before the typhoon arrive or when thunder approaching Tokyo. It will be a wonderful clear view.

The hall we used is very suitable for the Choral Competition of the high school students. Good reverb! The hall is also aesthetically pleasing as the seats always give you a nice view of the stage. It has several, well-located exits to conveniently move around.

Even though this concert hall is a municipal one, it's literally a proper concert hall with rich acoustics. All the secondary school band students living in this area have opportunities to perform in such a nice concert hall at the band competition. Alto, world-class artists sometimes perform here as well.

Place is very big,clean, beautiful and e

Visit for my kid’s concert, was great sound!

The acoustics seem a bit difficult even for the orchestra.

nice hall

A beautiful venue.

Smallish castle ruins park. Lots of trees and places to sit and enjoy the day. There are two shrines as you enter the park from the southwest but I totally missed them due to the trees. There is a small pond in the north section. It’s a pleasant park but with an elevated highway not that far away which is a bit distracting in an otherwise peaceful place.

(Translated by Google) I wish there was a more detailed explanation board about the history of this place! The ruins of the castle moat from the time of the Gohojo clan are around the shrine, and it is well maintained and has a beautiful view! (Original) ここの歴史についてもっと詳しい説明板があって欲しい！ 後北条氏の頃の城空堀跡が神社周囲にあり、手入れの良く景色も良い！

(Translated by Google) According to legend, Taki-no-jo Castle was built around 1180 and later became a branch castle of Ujiteru Hojo, until around 1590, during Hideyoshi's subjugation of Odawara, it was suddenly attacked by Nagamasa Asano's forces and fell. Currently, it is a vast park centered around Shiroyama Shrine. On Nanamagazaka, there was once a black pine tree that produced red sap when its skin was scraped, and a monument to the pine tree that bleeds now remains at the site. The park itself has mountains, water holes, forests, and playground equipment, making it a fun place to visit with your family. (Original) 伝承によると滝の城は1180年頃に築城され、後に北条氏照の支城となり、1590年頃に秀吉の小田原討伐の際に浅野長政勢に急襲され落城。 現在は城山神社を中心とした広大な公園となっています。 七曲坂には、かつて木肌を削ると赤い樹液の出た黒松があり、現在跡地には血の出る松の跡碑が残っています。 公園自体は山あり水場あり森林あり遊具ありで、家族で来ても楽しい場所です。

(Translated by Google) There are castle ruins from the Sengoku period, and it is a park with an open feel full of greenery. At this time of year, wild katakuri, which is rare in urban areas, appears. (Original) 戦国時代の城跡があり、緑あふれる開放感のある公園です。時期になると、都市部では珍しい自生のカタクリが現れます。

(Translated by Google) I came on a bike. Last year when I ran along the Yanase River, there were so many weeds that I didn't notice it and passed by. This time I went along Kanetsu. Parking lot, restrooms, play equipment, and tennis court available. I stopped by to get water, but the water was turned off. The water in the toilet was working. I thought I could climb to the top, but there were so many mosquitoes that I gave up. The source appears to be a murky pond. I thought the scenery was pretty good. You can see the elevated Musashino Line. There were many people with dogs. (Original) チャリで来た。 去年柳瀬川沿いを走った時は雑草が生い茂っていて気付かずにスルー。今回は関越沿いから行きました。 駐車場・トイレ・遊具・テニスコート有り。 水道を求めて寄りましたが水が止められていました。 トイレの水道は使えました。 上に登れそうでしたが、蚊が大量にまとわりついてきたので断念しました。濁った池が発生源のようです。 景色は割と良いと思いました。 武蔵野線の高架が見えます。 ワンコ連れが多かったです。

(Translated by Google) Taki no Castle Ruins Park September 19, 2022 Location: Tokorozawa City, Saitama Prefecture Parking: Free, approximately 50 spaces There is a toilet It is a park rich in nature. There are also play equipment such as tennis courts and slides, so even small children will be satisfied. In autumn, red spider lilies are in full bloom, and I think it's safe to say that it's a scenic spot. Because there are many trees, it is difficult for the water to dry out, and it can be very slippery the day after it rains, so be careful. (I also fell while walking while taking a video and hurt my back...) There are some steep stairs, so if you are not confident in your physical strength, we recommend that you avoid climbing them. It seems that vipers will also appear... Take care.

I visited by bike. If you're walking, the closest station is Koteshi Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line. Koteshi Shrine has a long history and feels very tranquil. The grounds are spacious and have a really nice vibe. Just wandering around, you can't help but feel peaceful and calm.

(Translated by Google) Less than 30 minutes walk from Kotesashi Station. The weather was nice, and the light shining through the trees made the shrine grounds feel very comfortable. Although it was during Golden Week, it wasn't crowded. There is also an aviation shrine in the precincts, and there was also a paper-cut stamp of an airplane✈️ Many of the monthly goshuin stamps are cute, so I would like to visit you again. (Original) 小手指駅からは徒歩で30分弱。 天気も良かったため、境内も木々の間から光が差し込みすごく心地よかったです。 GW中ですが混雑はしてませんでした。 境内には航空神社も鎮座しており、飛行機の切り絵御朱印もありました✈️ 月替わり御朱印も可愛いものが多いので、 また伺いたいです。

(Translated by Google) I happened to be passing by, so I stopped by on my way home. When I received the lovely paper cutout goshuin, the shrine staff kindly gave me a salt tablet to help with my salt intake. I was very happy with their thoughtfulness 😌 The Totoros displayed in the corner were also adorable ♡ (Original) たまたま通りかかったので帰りに寄ってみました。素敵な切り絵の御朱印を受け取る際に、神社の方のお気遣いで塩分チャージのタブレットを1粒頂きました。お心遣いがとても嬉しかったです😌隅に飾ってあったトトロ達も可愛かったです♡

In particular, as the birthplace of airplanes, the Goshuin seal, which is a shrine to aviation, is made with cutouts and is very modern. The plum blossoms are also beautiful in February. It’s rare to have a bell instead of a bell! “Hai”, the reply is high! His teachings may seem obvious, but they changed my mind and body. Tokorozawa for tea, Tokorozawa for the airport, Tokorozawa for the grilled dumplings, and Tokorozawa for the US military base. I now have one more place in my favorite town than my current address, Urawa. (Original) 所沢生まれながらさいたま市で育ち、なかなか訪問する機会がなかったが、62歳にして初めて北野天神社の鳥居を潜った。ガキの頃は、元町の神明様だったなぁ。 落ち着いた雰囲気でも、ローカルさを感じさせず、御朱印なども充実していた。特に、飛行機発祥の地として、航空神社たる御朱印は、切り絵づくりで、とてもモダンだ。２月は、梅も見事だ。鐘でなく鈴も珍しい！ 「拝」、返事のハイ！のご教示は、あたり前のことだが、心身を改めさせてもらった。 お茶の所沢、飛行場のあった所沢、焼だんごの所沢、米軍基地があった所沢。現住所の浦和より好きな町に、また一つ好きな場所が増えた。

(Translated by Google) I went looking for a shrine dedicated to Nigihayahi-no-Mikoto. It's not very well known, so it felt a little lonely, but I personally found it to be a nice, calming place. The only goshuin available were written ones. (Original) 饒速日命が御祭神の神社を探して行ってきました。 あまり有名でないのか少し寂しげな感じではありましたが、個人的には落ち着いていい感じでした。 御朱印は書き置きのみ、でした。

(Translated by Google) 〚Visiting shrines in various places〛A series of cycling to visit shrines in various places. The official name is Mononobe Tenjin Shrine, Kokuijigi Shrine, and Tenma Tenjin Shrine, collectively known as Kitano Tenjin Shrine. There were few people on the vast grounds, and it was quiet and refreshing. (Original) 〚各地神社巡り〛サイクリングで各地の神社を巡るシリーズ。 正式名は物部天神社、國渭地祇神社、天満天神社で総称：北野天神社とのこと。広大な敷地でこの日は人も少なく静かでとても清々しいお詣りでした。

(Translated by Google) We were greeted by a sacred horse made of straw. Handwritten goshuin are only available on weekdays. On weekends and holidays, you can only have a written stamp added, with the date included. (Original) 藁で作られた神馬が出迎えてくれました。 直書き御朱印は平日のみ 土日祝日は書置きのみで日付は入れてもらえます。

Nice and peaceful. Less populated.

(Translated by Google) I stopped by on my way out for a walk. There was a Natural Living Things Center nearby where I could learn about the ecology of insects and animals. Unfortunately, I could only get a vague view of Mt. Fuji from Arahata-no-Fuji. (Original) 散歩のついでに寄ってみました。 近くにいきものふれあいの里センターがあり昆虫や動物の生態を知れました。 荒幡の富士から富士山は残念ながら薄ぼんやりとしか見えませんでした。

A cool looking shrine that I assume is supposed to relate to Mount Fuji. The hill is shaped like Fuji, has a winding stairway, and there are various monuments along the route. Maybe a two minute climb. The view from the top was good, although obstructed by trees in several directions. It seems Fuji is visible on a clear day. I enjoyed climbing this more than the real Mount Fuji.

(Translated by Google) This is an artificial Mt. Fuji that can be reached in about 20 minutes on foot from Shimoyamaguchi Station on the Seibu Line. It is said to have been built by the villagers at the time when Sengen Shrine was moved to this location. Since it's called "Fuji," the routes are numbered in order starting from number 1, just like the original, and you reach the top by climbing the stairs. It seems like you can see the real Mt. Fuji, but I missed it. (Original) 西武線の下山口駅から徒歩20分程度で着く、人工の富士山です。浅間神社がこの場所に移った際に当時の村人たちが造ったそうです。 「富士」なので、本家と同じように1号目から順番に振られていて、階段を登っていくと頂上に着きます。 本物の富士山を見ることができるようですが、私は見逃してしまいました。

(Translated by Google) Towering over the Sayama Hills is Arahata Fuji, a large Fujizuka mound said to have been carved out of mud by local residents during the Meiji period. At just 119m above sea level, it's an easy climb, but the view from the top is outstanding! On a clear day, you can see the real Mount Fuji and Skytree in the distance, offering a 360-degree panoramic view. Starting at Sengen Shrine at the base, you can follow the signposts to the first and second stations to reach the summit, giving you the feeling of a mini-mountain climb. It's also close to Seibuen Amusement Park, so we recommend combining it with a stroll through Totoro Forest (Hachikokuyama Green Space)! (Original) 狭山丘陵にそびえ立つ、明治時代に住民の手で泥で造られたという大きな富士塚「荒幡富士」。標高は119mと気軽に登れる高さながら、頂上からの眺めは抜群！晴れた日には遠くに本物の富士山やスカイツリーまで望むことができる、360度のパノラマビューが魅力です。麓の浅間神社から一合目、二合目と道標を辿って登頂するプチ登山気分が楽しいですよ。西武園ゆうえんちからも近く、トトロの森（八国山緑地）への散策と合わせるのもおすすめです！

(Translated by Google) Fuji in Arahata (approximately 119 meters above sea level) is an artificial Mt. Fuji. Arahata Fuji itself is about 10m high, and it takes about 1 minute to climb from the first station to the top. From the top, you can see Mt. Fuji and other mountains to the west, and the Tokyo Sky Tree to the east. Good for a short walk (Original) 荒幡の富士（標高約119メートル）は、人工の富士山です。 荒幡富士自体は高さ10m程度で、一合目から頂上までは1分あれば登れます。 頂上からは西に富士山他の山並み、東側はかろうじて東京スカイツリーが見えます。 ちょっとした散歩には丁度良いです

(Translated by Google) It allows you to have a simulated experience of climbing Mt. Fuji. It's pretty interesting. 2025/6/4 (Original) 富士山へ登拝する、疑似体験をできる仕様。けっこうおもしろい。2025/6/4

This historic onsen embodies the soul of Shuzenji, where natural thermal springs have been cherished since the 9th century. According to legend, the great Buddhist monk Kobo Daishi struck the ground here with his tokko (ritual implement), causing the first hot spring to gush forth - giving the baths their name and sacred reputation. The Experience: • Traditional wooden architecture that has welcomed bathers for generations • Waters particularly valued for their skin-smoothing properties • Peaceful garden views from the bathing areas While not luxurious by modern standards, Tokko no Yu offers something rarer - an authentic connection to Japan's onsen traditions. The adjacent free foot bath (ashiyu) lets passersby sample the waters, continuing the communal spirit that has defined this spot for over 1,200 years. More than just a bath, it's a living piece of Izu's cultural heritage. Tip: Visit early morning when steam rises dramatically from the waters. The nearby Tokko-no-Yu Chaya serves excellent post-bath matcha. Historical Note: Heian-period aristocrats and Edo-era samurai all made pilgrimages to these waters, believing in their restorative powers. The current building preserves design elements from Meiji-era renovations. Perfect for: • Onsen traditionalists • History enthusiasts • Those seeking the "real Japan" beyond tourist spots • Walking tours of Shuzenji's spiritual sites

One out of seven very historical onsen in this town. Nice to imagine how people were taking a bath here several hundred years ago! When we visited the place, there were signs mentioning to „not touch the water“. So just for watching. But there is a foot bath right next to it, which you can use for free. Get I and enjoy!

A cute little hot spring in the middle of the river. Unfortunately you cannot bathe here or even dip your feet, but you can touch the water with your hands (the English translation on the signs is wrong, you can touch it, you just can't enter the bath).

Beautiful unique hot spring in middle of river of small town! But you can’t use it.though. Nice to take pictures

This is not a foot bath although it looks like one. I don’t think you are actually allowed to touch it.. but you can be sneaky :D most everyone at least touches it by hand a little anyways. It is quite the sight to behold at night or even during the day. It gets your imagination going.

Free foot bath in the middle of a cute town ❤️ There are a few different spots to put your feet in - one has a bench and a counter so you can have a snack or drinks.

Public bath for budget travellers in this beautiful historic onsen town. 350 JPY for an adult.

(Translated by Google) Approximately 30 years ago, due to a land readjustment project, 113 weeping cherry trees were planted approximately 500 meters on both banks of Sunagawa moat. It blooms with pretty pale pink flowers every spring. It is not recommended to visit by car as it is located in a residential area with many one-way streets. On the day of our visit, the cherry blossoms were a little past their peak, but they were still blooming beautifully. Revisited. The weeping cherry blossoms were beautiful again this year. It wasn't in full bloom yet, but it was nice to see it again this year 😊 (Original) 約30年前の土地区画整理事業に伴い、砂川堀の両岸約500ｍに113本のしだれ桜を植樹。毎年春には淡紅色の可憐な花を咲かせる。住宅街に位置していて一方通行が多い場所ですので車での訪問はお勧め出来ません。 訪問日は桜のピークは少し過ぎてましたが　まだ綺麗に咲いていました。 再訪　今年も綺麗なしだれ桜でした。 まだ満開では無かったですが今年も見れて良かった😊

(Translated by Google) I've been to see it many times over the past few years. When I was walking around this area, someone asked me, "Where is the weeping cherry tree?" A path of beautiful weeping cherry blossoms stretches for less than 1 kilometer. It's a one-way street for cars, but at this time of year, I get the impression that people are passing slowly to see the cherry blossoms (or to avoid cherry blossom viewing visitors...?). You can also admire the flowers blooming in the gardens of people who live on this street. (Original) ここ数年何回も見にきています。 この近くを歩いていると「枝垂れ桜はどこですか？」と聞かれたほど。1キロ弱に渡って見事な枝垂れ桜の道が並びます。 車は一方通行の道ですが、この時期は花見ついで（もしくは花見客よけ…？）にゆっくり通行されている印象です。 この通りに住んでいる方の庭に咲く花などもついでに見とれてしまいます。

(Translated by Google) As of April 30th, it was blooming quite a lot, but there were some 🌸 that hadn't bloomed at all yet. (Original) 4月30日時点で結構咲いていましたが、まだ全然咲いていない🌸もありました。

(Translated by Google) 113 weeping cherry trees were blooming on both banks of Sunagawa moat for about 500 meters, and they were blooming in cute light pink 🌸. It is located in a residential area and there are many one-way streets, so we do not recommend visiting by car, but if you do go by car, there is a coin parking nearby, so I think it would be a good idea to use that. On the day I visited, some of the flowers had fallen, but it was still beautiful. (Original) 砂川堀の両岸約500ｍに113本の枝垂れ桜が咲いていて淡紅色の可愛い🌸を咲かせてました。住宅街に位置していて一方通行が多い場所ですので車での訪問はお勧め出来ませんが、もし車で行かれる時はコインパーキングが近くにあるのでそこを利用されるといいと思います。 訪問日は少し花が散ってきてましたがまだ素敵でした。

(Translated by Google) When I went to see the weeping cherry blossoms in Sunagawabori on March 24, 2021, they were at their peak. The cherry blossom trees lined up along the Sunagawa moat are a sight to behold. Cars sometimes pass by, so you need to be careful when walking while looking at the cherry blossoms, but it's a really nice cherry blossom spot. (Original) 2021年3月24日に砂川堀のしだれ桜を見に行ったら、いい感じに見頃を迎えていました。砂川堀沿いに桜の木がずらーっと並んでいて見応え抜群です。たまに車も通るので、桜を見ながら歩くときは注意が必要ですが、本当に素敵な桜スポットです。

(Translated by Google) It's blooming beautifully this year too. (Original) 今年も 見事に咲いています

(Translated by Google) Although it is in an inconspicuous location, the row of cherry blossom trees is surprisingly long and beautiful during the cherry blossom season, and the hydrangeas bloom during the rainy season. (Original) 目立たない場所にあるが桜並木も意外と長く桜の時期は綺麗、梅雨時期には紫陽花も咲きます、車で通ると一時停止だらけです。

(Translated by Google) Although it is a park near the station, it is large and has many benches, so it seems convenient. There is also a variety of play equipment that children will enjoy. However, I was disappointed that the toilet was not clean. (Original) 駅から近くの公園ですが、規模的には広くベンチの数も多いので便利そうです。 遊具も一通りあり子どもも喜びそうです。 ただ、トイレは綺麗ではないので残念でした。

(Translated by Google) It is the closest park to Tokorozawa Station, and is fully equipped with play equipment, restrooms, benches, etc. It's a perfect place for small children to play. Among them, the dinosaur slide seems to be popular. (^○^) (Original) 所沢駅から一番近い公園で、遊具、トイレ、ベンチ等全て備わっています。小さな子供が遊ぶのにもってこいの場所ですね。中でも、恐竜の滑り台が人気のようです。(^○^)

(Translated by Google) Many people smoke on benches during the day. I don't really want to go there because I'm smoking right next to the playground equipment. There is a toilet, but it doesn't seem very clean. The dinosaur slide is rare and nice. (Original) 昼間からベンチでタバコ吸ってる人が多い。遊具のすぐ近くで吸ってるからあまり行きたくない。 トイレもあるけどあまりキレイな感じはしない。 恐竜の滑り台が珍しくていい。

(Translated by Google) Is the playground equipment in a natural park a dinosaur slide? chisel and iron rod. There are people playing gateball. Just the right size for running around. (Original) 自然な公園、遊具らしきものは恐竜の滑り台？のみと鉄棒。ゲートボールをしている方がいる。走り回るのにはちょうど良い広さ。

(Translated by Google) A park whose nature changes dramatically between day and night. During the day, mothers with small children can be seen, but at night, naughty-looking middle school and high school students hang out, smoking cigarettes, and leaving plastic bottles and cup noodles unattended. (Original) 昼と夜とでガラッと性質が代わってしまう公園。 昼間は小さな子供を連れた母親の姿が見られるが、夜になると中高生のヤンチャそうな人がたむろしてタバコを吸っていたり、ペットボトルやカップ麺をそのまま放置していたりする。

(Translated by Google) The dinosaur slide is surrounded by an enclosure for some reason. The sand is very rough and doesn't slip at all, and the sand gets very dirty on my butt. Therefore, it is ★5. (Original) 恐竜のすべり台は、なぜか囲いで覆われている。 ゴツゴツしていて全然滑らないサラに砂で、おしりがものすごい汚れる。 よって★五です。

(Translated by Google) I was able to spend a relaxing time with plenty of greenery and benches (*^^*) (Original) 緑もベンチも多めでゆったりとした時を過ごすことが出来ました(*^^*)

(Translated by Google) I received a pamphlet from Kosoen in Higashikurume a long time ago and came here. It is exhibited internally at art events. A simple but prestigious house. It's quiet and calm, and the sunlight filtering through the trees feels nice. At that time, the autumn leaves were in full bloom. I went there yesterday too, but the autumn leaves weren't there yet. (Original) だいぶ前に東久留米の顧想園でここのパンフをもらい、来たことがあります。 アートイベントで内部公開されている。 地味だけど格式の高い家。 静かで落ち着いて、木漏れ日がいい感じ。 その時は紅葉が見ごろでした。 昨日も行ったけど紅葉はまだでした。

(Translated by Google) Open for viewing only on Thursdays. Opening hours change depending on the season. ⊂(・ε・｀)ノシ.:∴ There is a hidden parking lot on the north side of the Sakano-shita intersection on National Route 463. It's hard to notice because it's hidden in the parking lot of a car dealership. From the parking lot, climb up the mountain path that is shaped like stairs. From the parking lot, exit onto National Route 463, and about 10m east there is a slope that is large enough for a light truck to climb. This passes through the site and can be accessed in front of Orinkaku. But! It is covered with fluffy fallen leaves, making it impossible for a wheelchair to pass through. If the mountain path from the parking lot is considered a men's slope, this slope can be called a women's slope. There is a small parking lot on the north side of Orinkaku. About 3 regular cars. If you don't have enough leg strength, is it better to take the English Interchange from National Route 254? (Original) 木曜日のみ観覧可能。 季節で開館時間が変わります。 ⊂(・ε・｀)ノシ.:∴ 国道463坂之下交差点の、北側に隠れた駐車場がある。自動車販売店の駐車場に隠れて気付きにくい。 駐車場からは、階段状に整備された山道を登る。 駐車場から国道463に出て、10m程東に、軽トラックが登れるくらいの坂道がある。これは敷地を貫き、黄林閣の手前に抜けられる。が!　フカフカの落ち葉が敷き詰められ、車イスの通行は不可能。駐車場からの山道を男坂とするならば、この坂道は女坂と言える程度。 黄林閣の北側に、小さな駐車場がある。普通車３台程度。脚力が覚束ない方は、国道254の方から英インターを掠めて来るのが良いのかな？

(Translated by Google) I often drive by it, but it always seems to be closed. I would like to take a look inside next time. (Original) よく車で目の前を通るのですが、いつも閉まっているようです。今度中を見学したいです。

(Translated by Google) A fire lookout tower remains at a crossroads about 100m east of Orinkaku. Looking at the aerial photo, it looks like it was built around the 1950s, but there is no proof. It has a square tower body, a square watchtower, and an octagonal roof with bracken. It is a pity that both the lightning rod and the bell have been removed, but it matches the surrounding countryside, including Huangrinkaku. (Original) 黄林閣の東約100mほどの辻には、火の見櫓が残されている。航空写真で見ると1950年代頃建てられたものの様だが確証はない。 四角い塔体に四角い見張り台、蕨手付きの八角屋根。避雷針も半鐘も外されているのが残念だが、黄林閣含め、周囲の田園縁風景にマッチした存在である。

(Translated by Google) This is the villa of the late Yasuemon Matsunaga from Iki Island, who was known as the power king. It can be visited only on Thursdays, and public transportation is difficult to access, making it difficult to visit, but it's definitely worth a visit. Orinkaku Edo period Tenpo period private house The deep earthen floor and high-ceilinged tatami room are simple yet elegant. A valuable example of one of the few remaining Musashino private houses Designated as an important cultural property in 1978 (From Yanaseso leaflet) Shagetsutei Built between 1939 and 1939. Sukiya style Shoin-zukuri 8 tatami upper room The next room is 6 tatami mats and consists of 5 tatami mats on the front side. It is said to have been constructed using old materials from Todaiji and Taimaji temples. (From Yanaseso leaflet) Kyu-an Tea room in the early Edo period The building that had been demolished was rebuilt between 1939 and 1939. A two-tatami tea room and a four-tatami water store The exterior is a thatched Makabe structure (part of the eaves has been renovated with copper plates) The interior is a quaint tea room with cedar pillars, a pole-edge ceiling, and a wickerwork ceiling. (From Yanaseso leaflet) (Original) 電力王と言われた、壱岐島出身の故松永安左エ門翁の別荘。 見学できるのは木曜日のみ、公共交通機関の便も悪く訪れるのにはハードルの高い場所だが一見の価値あり。 黄林閣(おうりんかく) 江戸時代 天保期の民家 懐の深い土間や天井の高い座敷は質実のうちに格調高く 数少なくなった武蔵野民家の遺例として貴重なもの 昭和53年 重要文化財に指定 (柳瀬荘リーフレットより) 斜月亭(しゃげつてい) 昭和13～14年にかけて建築 数寄屋風書院造 8畳の上の間 6畳の次の間 縁座敷の表5畳で構成 東大寺や當麻寺の古材をもって造作されたと伝わる (柳瀬荘リーフレットより) 久木庵(きゅうぼくあん) 江戸初期の茶室 解体されていたものを昭和13～14年にかけて建て替え 二畳目台の茶室と四畳程の水屋 外観は茅葺の真壁造り(庇の一部を銅板で改修) 内部は杉の面皮柱、竿縁天井、網代天井など趣のある茶室だ (柳瀬荘リーフレットより)

(Translated by Google) It's a nice building with a nice atmosphere. Unfortunately, it is only open to the public on Thursdays. (Original) 中々雰囲気のある良い建物です。一般公開が木曜日のみなのが残念です。

(Translated by Google) Due to maintenance and other reasons, it can only be visited on Thursdays, but if you are interested in old folk houses and historical buildings, please come and see it! We were given a free tour, there was a parking lot (although it was small), and the person who was taking care of the facility gave us a brief explanation, so I learned a lot! (Original) メンテナンス他の関係で､木曜日しか見学出来ない見たいですが､古民家や歴史的建造物に興味持っておられる方は､是非見学行かれて下さい～！ 無料見学させて頂き､駐車場(小さいですが…)も完備されて､施設御世話されておられる方に軽く説明しただけましたので､勉強成りました～！

Nice, quiet atmosphere, far from Shinjuku but recommend if you want to visit a more local temple!

Hidden in the quiet area of Itabashi, Joren-ji Temple is one of those peaceful places that makes you forget you’re still in Tokyo. The atmosphere is calm and spiritual, surrounded by trees, small stone statues, and a sense of stillness that’s rare in the city. The highlight is definitely the Great Buddha (Tokyo Daibutsu) — a beautiful 13-meter bronze statue that feels both majestic and gentle. It’s not crowded like Asakusa or Kamakura, so you can really take your time to sit, reflect, or take photos without rush. It’s a perfect spot for anyone looking for tranquility, quiet reflection, or a hidden piece of Tokyo’s history.

When thinking of Daibutsu, or Great Buddha statues, the majority of people immediately picture the one at Nara's Tōdaiji Temple or the one at Kōtokuin in Kamakura. But, surprise! There is a place in Tokyo where you can see a Daibutsu too. So, today let's head to this mysterious place that hides a Daibutsu statue, Jorenji Temple.

Beautiful and historical architecture …very serene

Wonderful place to be there Very quiet and peaceful

Very serene, quiet, and interesting. If you take an Uber or taxi. Do not let them leave. You will be stranded. But there is a 711 near and a museum close by that you might be able to get a taxi or uber.

No crowds. A long train trip then walk to get there but worth it.

Small one-room gallery which is light and easy to find from station. Only really has enough space for a one-person show with limited space for drinks or using as an event space.

(Translated by Google) A gallery space with a cute exterior. It is a valuable place in Nishi-Tokyo City that holds various events and provides opportunities to experience new culture on a daily basis. (Original) 可愛い外観のギャラリースペース。色々な催事を展開してらして、日常に新しい文化に触れる機会を提供してくれる、西東京市で貴重な場所です。

(Translated by Google) I came across this on my way to Kiunkaku. There seems to be a corner in the corner of the steakhouse building. Maybe he was a regular at the steak restaurant. It's compact but easy to understand. Professor Sugako Hashida is an honorary citizen of Atami. He was recommended to take a trip around the world by boat for a change of pace, and when he saw world heritage sites right in front of him just by being on a boat, he became hooked. I was surprised when the natural village villa in Atami that I entrusted to the foundation was put up for sale, but I think Sugako Hashida was also relieved that the store loved Sugako Hashida and created a corner like this. Next time I will try the steak here. (Original) 起雲閣に向かう途中でこちらに出会う。 ステーキ屋の建物の一角にコーナーがあるようだ。 たぶんステーキ屋の常連だったのかなぁ。 コンパクトだけどわかりやすくまとめられている。 橋田壽賀子先生は熱海名誉市民。 船の世界一周旅行は気分転換に勧められ、船に乗っているだけで世界遺産が目の前にやってくると、ハマったそうです。 財団に託した熱海の自然郷別荘が売り出されてビックリしたが、お店が橋田壽賀子先生を愛してこのようなコーナーを作られて橋田壽賀子先生もホッとしたと思います。 今度はこちらでステーキ食べてみます。
