・Sakitama Ancient Burial Mounds (Sakitama Kofun-gun)

Inariyama Kofun

Maruhakayama Kofun

Those are in Gyoda City.

The photograph top is "Inariyama Kofun" which is a burial mound with a square front and a round back.

The photograph bottom is "Maruhakayama Kofun" which is a round burial mound.

When Mitsunari Ishida attacked the Oshi catsle, Maruhakayama Kofun was a place where he set a camp.

At the museum, you can watch a national-treasure-sword "Kinsaku-Mei-Tekken" which a letter of "Wa-Ka-Ta-Ke-Ru" was engraved into.


・Noodles shop Ueda (Men-ya Ueda)

It is a famous ramen shop near Shiki Station. The performance to burn soup using two burners is interesting, and it is delicious.


・Kawagoe City

An hour bell

An-Tai Omikuji

Sweet Potato Cakes

Kawagoe is called "Small Edo(Ko-Edo)" for a long time. The cityscape of the Edo era is left.

It is fun to fish a sacred lot "An-Tai Omikuji" at the Kawagoe-Hikawa-jinja Shrine.

A standard souvenir is the cake using sweet potatoes which is the specialty of Kawagoe.


・Washinomiya-jinja Shrine (Washinomiya-jinja)

Washinomiya-jinja Shrine Lucky☆Star

It became a stage of animated cartoon "Lucky☆Star".

There are a lot of enthusiastic fans making a pilgrimage to the sacred place.

I understood the feeling of a person who did the pilgrimage to such place since I was crazy for an animated cartoon "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya”.


・The Railway Museum (Tetsudo Hakubutsukan)

The Railway Museum The model of the railway

It is in Kita Ward, Saitama City. By New Shuttle Line, it is the next station of Omiya Station.

The corner that can learn the principle and the structure of a railroad is interesting.


・Chichibu Hill of the Ground pink (Chichibu Shibazakura-no-Oka)

Hill of the Ground pink The Ground pink

Hill of Miharashi

The ground pink are planted all over the slope of the Hitsujiyama-Koen Park.

It can be seen around the Golden Week (the holiday from the end of April to the beginning of May in Japan).

For your information, there is "the hill of Miharashi" in the park. You can overlook Chichibu city there.


・Chichibu Ryusei Festival (Chichibu Ryusei Matsuri)

It is a festival to launch the super huge rocket fireworks "Ryusei".

It is held every year on second Sunday of October.

The rocket launch sometimes fails.

Nagatoro3

It is a valley which has a unique landform called Iwadatami.

Chipped Natural Ice of Asami-reizo is a noted product of Nagatoro. It has food texture like snow.


・Hot Air Balloon of Tokorozawa Aviation Memorial Park(Koku-Koen no Netsu-Kikyu Taiken)

Balloon

Burner floating

From March to December, it is performed once a month.

You can experience riding a hot air balloon easily in the suburbs of Tokyo.

Because the event has a first-come-first-served basis and a limitation of the number of people, it is necessary for you to get up early.


・Yakitori in Higashimatsuyama City ←I love this.☆☆☆

Kashiraya

Though Yakitori means "a barbecued chicken", pork is used in Higashimatsuyama City.

It is eaten with spicy miso dip.

I love "Hire-nankotsu" of a famous Yakitori restaurant,"Kashiraya".

Branch shops are in Omiya and Kawagoe.


・Steak House Don (Suteki no Don)

Steak House Don

It is a chain store mainly in Saitama.

I like SAGARI steaks.
