It has 40 cities and 8 towns, mostly consisting of a mixture of residential areas and beautiful scenery. Saitama has many wonderful tourist spots like the Edo townscape in Kawagoe, the famous Nagatoro River Cruise, the beautiful moss pink (Shibazakura) in Chichibu, The hundred caves of Yoshimi, and the Railway Museum in Saitama City. For sake enthusiasts, going to Saitama is just the right choice for you because there are over 35 breweries in Saitama alone.
