I personally love this place a lot. It brings the Edo Street vibes here and is easily accessible by local trains. I will get you from the main Kawagoe Station to Cremall and then slowly to Warehouse District Ko-Edo. Hope you enjoy the walking tour!

Kawagoe isn't far from Tokyo , but it feels like a totally different world. Koedo, which means "Little Edo," is a great place to experience Japan around 120 years ago. Its old merchant storehouses, bell tower, old-fashioned candy shops, castle and temple offer a glimpse of what life was like several centuries ago when the area prospered as a transportation and commerce hub.

Kawagoe is just 45 minutes from central Tokyo in southwestern Saitama Prefecture.

The easiest way to reach Kawagoe by train is to take the Seibu Shinjuku Express from Seibu Shinjuku Station to Hon-Kawagoe Station. The limited express takes about 45 minutes. Seibu Shinjuku Station is a five-minute walk from Shinjuku Station's east exit.
