In this video, we will be visiting Kawagoe, a town located in Saitama Prefecture, to the north of Tokyo, roughly 30 minutes by train from Ikebukuro. Kawagoe is a popular day trip destination thanks to its traditional city centre, where many older buildings give it an ambience that resembles that of what Tokyo used to look like in historic days.
