About Kawagoe

Kawagoe is a castle town north-west of Tokyo, nicknamed Little Edo for its dark clay-walled warehouses, a bell tower and sweet-potato treats.

Kawagoe, in Saitama Prefecture about thirty kilometres north-west of central Tokyo, was a castle town and trading centre in the Edo period. Its main street, Ichibangai, is lined with kurazukuri, merchants' warehouses with thick black clay walls and tiled roofs, which survived fires and give the town its nickname of Little Edo. The Toki no Kane, a wooden bell tower rebuilt in 1894, rings out four times a day and is the town's emblem.
