Tokorozawa Sakura Town Half Day Tour

"Koedo" literally means "Little Edo" which is located about 30 minutes by train from central Tokyo. It's a compact town so quite suitable for one day trip. 
Kura-no-machi (old storehouse town) still has the atmosphere of Edo culture. These storehouses were built by carpenters from Edo in Meiji period.  

In Koedo Kawagoe you can ...
  wear kimono and take a walk in the town. (2,160 Jpy ~ / person )
