Enjoy Nature, Great Food, And Culture In The Heart Of An Urban Area!

In Saitama Prefecture you can admire many beautiful flowers each season – you will find numerous species waiting for eager visitors to gaze upon them, such as moss phlox, blooming in Chichibu’s Hitsujiyama Park, or various types of cherry blooming in Nagatoro in spring. In autumn you can rest your eyes on red spider lily blooming in Hidaka’s Kinchakuda, and during winter you can expect the beautiful sight of winter sakura (cherry blooming in winter), which you can admire at Jomine Park in Kamikawa City.
