A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
川口市
Kawaguchi is a Saitama city adjoining northern Tokyo. Start with one city park and check each attraction separately: a park visit does not mean all its facilities are operating.
This guide covers places within Kawaguchi, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Three places with different atmospheres. Start with the one that appeals to you instead of visiting them all.
01A first-visit stop
グリーンセンター
A municipal park of trees, flowers and walking spaces. The photo shows its waterfall flowing in 2014. The operator announced suspension of the waterfall and large fountain in January 2026; do not expect flowing water today.
Getting there
Check the approach from Araijuku station on Saitama Railway
02Closed · historical context
旧田中家住宅
A historic residence in Kawaguchi’s Suehiro district. It has been closed since January 2025 for seismic upgrades. This is a 2020 exterior photograph; the residence is not an entry stop on the suggested walk.
Getting there
Check the official site for reopening and access information
A first-visit stop
イイナパーク川口
