About Kawasaki

Kawasaki is a long city between Tokyo and Yokohama, with a big temple, a village of old farmhouses and a museum for Doraemon's creator.

Kawasaki is a long, narrow city stretching along the Tama River from Tokyo Bay into the hills, between Tokyo and Yokohama, with factories on the waterfront and suburbs inland. Kawasaki Daishi, the temple of Heiken-ji, draws crowds at New Year, and the street leading to it sells traditional sweets and hand-cut candy.
