I went to Laketown on the first day of Golden Week! The parking lots were all full! If you're going by car, it's definitely better to check before you go. You might have to wait a little. There's an outlet mall, and there's also a lake. It's highly recommended for families with children and for those with dogs🐶. There are plenty of spots to take photos. Please take some pictures♪ There are many different shops, so it's fun to walk around! Address 〒343-0828 Saitama Prefecture, Koshigaya, Laketown 4 Chome-1-1

Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture. Whenever I have business in the Koshigaya area, I always stop by Katori Shrine. When I went to pray for the first time in a while, there was a beautiful cherry blossom tunnel. When I passed through the cherry blossom tunnel, a very healing space spread out. Koshigaya Katori Shrine is widely known as a shrine for fertility and safe childbirth because it enshrines the female Konohanasakuyahime. In addition, there are cute heart-shaped votive plaques, and it is also a power spot for matchmaking. If you go around to the back of the shrine grounds, you will find a large matchmaking tree. There are several types of fortune-telling slips and goshuin, so it is a very enjoyable shrine. This time, I received a goshuin that is only available in April. And Katori Shrine has many photo spots. They have various photo spots for spring, summer, autumn and winter. This time, the cherry blossom and strawberry motifs matched the blue sky, and I was able to take a cute photo. I went during the day on a weekday, and although there were several groups visiting, it did not seem crowded, and I received a lot of power and healing this time as well. It is a very accessible shrine, just a 3-minute walk from the station. Please come and visit us. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 📍Spot name: Koshigaya Katori Shrine 3-13-38 Osawa, Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture ☎️048-975-7824🚃3 minutes walk from Kita-Koshigaya Station on the Tobu Skytree Line #Sakura2024 #Shrine #ShrineTour #TempleStamp #Saitama

I found "Taro Yaki" from "Taro Yaki Honpo", a Koshigaya specialty, on the street in front of the station in Koshigaya, Saitama. The price is 100 yen each The batter is filled with plenty of honey and eggs, and the filling is homemade bean paste with less sugar. The sugar used is brown sugar, which also enhances the flavor. It seems that many people buy it to take away, but since it is individually wrapped, I ate the kaitenyaki while it was still hot. The location is about 400m straight down the street in front of Koshigaya Station. It takes about 6 minutes to arrive. There is no eat-in area. This is a take-out only store.

#SaitamaTourism Unaju (Unashige) I went to Unaju, a restaurant I'd been interested in for a while It seems that it's pronounced Unashige, not Unaju😊 I went without a reservation and it was full so I had no choice but to get takeout💦 I guess everyone was trying to avoid summer fatigue The restaurant was almost full with reservations Takeout was OK👌 There were tatami and table seats inside the restaurant, and it seemed like the tatami seats were being used by a family I ordered the special! It cost 3,400 yen I went to pick it up about 30 minutes later When I got home and ate it, it was incredibly filling!! The eel was thick and plump♪ I was surprised that the eel was so big that I couldn't eat it all by myself☺️ The parking lot was quite spacious with an eel banner It's about a 10-minute drive from Koshigaya Lake Town, so it's also recommended for those who are visiting Lake Town👍🏻 📍 3-7 Kawaryumachi, Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture am/11:00-13:30 pm/16:30-19:00 Closed Thursdays and the third Friday #SaitamaGourmet #SaitamaEelShop #KoshigayaGourmet #Unashige #UnagiRiceBowl #777

#SaitamaTourism This time I recommended to everyone A place where you can experience flying in the sky! You can experience indoor skydiving. There are various things to be careful about, but it is almost dangerous. You can enjoy it like an attraction. You can also download videos and photos from the internet. Flying in the sky is out of the ordinary and very enjoyable! It was a bit of a luxurious experience, but it was a lot of fun. It might be a good surprise gift for someone you like lol 6-19-3 Lake Town, Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture, 343-0828 #SummerTrip #777

#SaitamaTourism Nikujiru Udon Amano-ya Koshigaya Lake Town Store This is a restaurant that just opened in March The signboard recommends nikujiru udon, so I ordered nikujiru udon♪ Musashino udon made with local flour from Saitama Prefecture is mixed with water and dipped in warm soup☺️ I don't know if this is normal, but I waited 15 minutes from ordering to the dish💦 Super thick noodles! One noodle that feels like it's about 1 cm long There was a lot of meat in the soup, but I wonder if it was too salty I added dashi at the end and drank it, but it was still too strong😅 *As of July 2023 This is not a chain store 📍 6-26-2 Lake Town, Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture OPEN 11:00 to 21:00 (open all year round) #SaitamaGourmet #KoshigayaLakeTown #NikujiruUdon #KoshigayaGourmet #MusashinoUdon #777

"Old Toho Nakamura Family Residence" The location is about a 5-minute walk from Lake Town Station I'll leave a photo here for reference Admission fee: 100 yen, 50 yen for elementary and junior high school students Opening hours: 9:00-17:00 This house was built in 1772 as the building of the Nakamura family, who were the headmen of this region, and it offers a good opportunity to learn about the lifestyle and traditional houses of that time The roof was thatched at the time, but was changed to tiled during the renovation. Inside are stored agricultural tools and living implements from that time Please come and learn about the history of the region #"Old Toho Nakamura Family Residence" #Old folk house

"Daikichi Adjustment Pond Park" This park can be reached by bus from Kitakoshigaya Station. This adjustment pond was created when the flow of the Shinkata River and Sakai River was changed to prevent the Shinkata River from flowing into residential areas on the other side when the water level of the Shinkata River was high, and the Shinkata River was made to flow straight and the Sakai River was made to flow underground. There is a promenade around the pond, and stakes are driven into the ground so that you can see how many meters you have walked counterclockwise. The scenery is beautiful and it is perfect for a cool evening stroll, walking, and jogging. It is also good for a family picnic. Also, when viewed from above, this place is shaped like Koshigaya City, and it is a mysterious spot that is said to be Koshigaya within Koshigaya City. If you come to Koshigaya, you must see it along with the neighboring Wild Bird Forest. #Promenade #JoggingCourse #Reservoir #FishingSpot #KoshigayaCity

This is the center of Koshigaya City, a place of relaxation for the citizens adjacent to the city hall, the "Kasai Waterfront Greenway" and "Fujidana Street" on the Moto-Arakawa River. The roads are well maintained and beautiful, making it a good place to take a walk or jog in the morning or evening. Flowers are planted for each season, delighting visitors. Fujidana Street juts out into the river, so you can enjoy the scenery at your leisure. I've left a photo of the location for reference. This is a recommended spot in Koshigaya. Please come and visit. #Moto-Arakawa #Kasai Waterfront Greenway #Fujidana Street #Promenade

Minamikoshigaya Tantanmen Wabi Sabi The signature dish is of course the "Tantanmen"‼️ It looks spicy but it's not spicy at all The rich soup is incredibly delicious But this tantanmen also comes with a cheese risotto set This cheese risotto is made by leaving a little of the tantanmen soup and is incredibly delicious 😋 They also have tantan tsukemen You can also make risotto here ♪ It's been getting hot lately, so they also have chilled tantanmen ☺️ This is a restaurant I've been coming back to again and again! 📍 1F Central 12 Minamikoshigaya Building, 1-16-3 Minamikoshigaya, Koshigaya, Saitama Business hours: 11:30-24:00 (last orders 23:30) #Recommended restaurant in Saitama #Delicious restaurant in Saitama #Minamikoshigaya #Repeat restaurant #Japanese restaurant #Recommended tantanmen restaurant #Popular restaurant in Koshigaya

Access: Bus No. 4 from Koshigaya Station East Exit → Hanadaen Entrance Tourist Spot: Strolling Pond Garden, Autumn Leaves Admission Fee: 100 yen The garden is smaller than you might imagine. It takes about 20 minutes to go around the whole garden, but I was impressed by the spectacular view of the autumn leaves reflected on the water! There are not many people, so I recommend it. #trip2022

These are the illuminations at the east exit of Koshigaya Station. They're not flashy, but I think it's pretty nice to see them on your way home. They're really small, but I feel so happy every time I see them that I tried taking photos. These kinds of things are nice too!

There are 8 types of pools, and the outdoor pool is fun for both children and adults 🏖 Admission fees are 730 yen for adults, 210 yen for children, and 1,670 yen for a family ticket (2 adults and 2 children). Parking is 840 yen for regular cars and 840 yen for large cars. It was 1,670 yen🚗 It's located in Koshigaya City and is easy to get to from the city center, so it's a popular pool (´˘`＊)🏖🐠☀️ They also sell tickets called resort area tickets, which are areas where tents, deck chairs, tables, etc. are set up🥰 This area with a sturdy roof is 5,000 yen, and the parasol-type area is 4,000 yen⛱ It's nice that you can rent tents and sheets without having to bring them yourself🎶 There were many shops and it was well-equipped✨ The park closes at 16:30, but the coin lockers and changing rooms get very crowded from around 16:00💦 It's smoother if you prepare to go home early✨ The summer business in 2024 will end, but it was a pool that I would like to visit again next summer🌺 #Furitabi #Water Park #Shirakobato Water Park #Outdoor pool #Saitama #Recommended pool

Evening in Japan🌆!

#thingstodo The entrance fee to the Japanese garden was 100 yen. The tea ceremony fee was 500 yen. There was a free parking lot. I went there for the first time today, and it is a quiet and very well-maintained Japanese garden. There were many photo opportunities such as the crimson autumn leaves, the bamboo forest path, the waterfall, and the red round bridge. There were people here for Shichi-Go-San events and pre-wedding photos, and their kimonos matched the atmosphere of this Japanese garden, and time seemed to slow down here. I believe that here you can find different beauty in each season.

Strawberry Picking Strawberry Garden Ogishima Koshigaya#Strawberry Garden OgishimaI went strawberry picking!The strawberries were really beautiful and delicious. There were several varieties, each with a completely different sourness, sweetness and moisture content, and the kids munched away! After picking, there was a lottery for the kids to enjoy, and souvenirs were also sold! It was strawberry picking in a greenhouse, so it was warm even in winter. There are bees in the garden, but they are generally docile. 3rd photo There is a parking lot.

Katori Shrine is located in Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture. Koshigaya Katori Shrine is widely known as a shrine for fertility and safe childbirth, as it enshrines the female deity Konohanasakuyahime. When you pass through the torii gate, you will first be greeted by colorful lanterns. There are cute heart-shaped votive plaques, and it is also a power spot for matchmaking. There are several types of fortune-telling slips and goshuin stamps to enjoy. I went during the day on a weekday, and was able to visit without any crowds, and it gave me a lot of energy.

Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture. 20 minutes walk from Kitakoshigaya Station. Koshigaya Hisaizu Shrine is located along the Motoarakawa River. As you walk along the long approach to the shrine, you will be greeted by lion-dog statues. The shrine is surrounded by a lot of greenery, and you can get a lot of power from it. There is a wisteria trellis that is said to be over 200 years old, and a wisteria festival is held when it is in full bloom. In addition, Hisaizu can also be read as quiz, so people related to quizzes come to worship here. The shrine is said to bring good luck, good fortune, prosperity in business, success in love, happiness in all directions, and overcoming difficulties. There are also goshuin and omikuji, and many amulets. I visited during the day on a weekday, and there were few people, so I was able to spend a relaxing time. It is a very healing shrine, so please visit it. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 📍1700 Koshigaya, Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture, 343-0024🚃20 minutes walk from Kitakoshigaya Station on the Tobu Skytree Line#besttrip2023#Shrine #Stamp #Saitama #Koshigaya #First Shrine Visit of the Year #Power Spot

The Great Wall of China, a World Heritage Site, is overwhelming in scale as soon as you arrive. I think it's a tourist spot that everyone should visit at least once in their life.

#SaitamaTourism Ichiran Koshigaya Laketown When it comes to tonkotsu ramen, you can say "Ichiran", right? There are only two stores in Saitama Prefecture, one in Omiya and the other in Laketown I lined up in the heat of midsummer to eat (^^ ; First, buy a meal ticket Before eating, circle your preference on a piece of paper (Korean, Chinese, English available) Then, once you enter the taste-focused counter, concentrate on the ramen without worrying about the people around you!! The secret to the large number of female customers is that this semi-private room is apparently the reason why there are so many female customers It's true that ramen is difficult to enter alone as a woman, so I hesitate💦 Even when you order a replacement bowl, they bring you a freshly boiled one after you place the plate, so you don't have to say a word! However, even if you order an egg with a meal ticket, you don't get a boiled egg, but a regular boiled egg😂 Needless to say, the taste is really delicious💕 Ichiran's white rice is also delicious and makes me want to eat it, but this time I'll hold back lol It's one of the ramen shops I sometimes go back to^^ 📍 AEON Lake Town Mori, 3-1-1 Lake Town, Koshigaya, Saitama OPEN 10:00-22:00 #SaitamaGourmet #KoshigayaLakeTown #Ichiran #KoshigayaGourmet #JapaneseRamen #Ramen #777

"Rice Field Art" Rice field art suddenly appears when you're driving along a path along an empty irrigation canal 🎨 It's surprising to see it in such a place. It's fun to watch. It seems that they display different art every year. It's supposed to be viewed from the observation deck. But it's good. Personally, I give it 100 points 💯 It's located in front of the irrigation canal of Koshigaya Public Pool. Please come and see it. #"Rice Field Art" #Art #Countryside Rice Field
