A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
ときがわ町
Tokigawa is a town in Saitama. Discover temple history and local woodworking at Jikō-ji and Tategu Hall. Check current transport rather than assuming a short walk between the hillside temple and the hall.
This guide covers places within Tokigawa, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
01A first-visit stop
慈光寺
A historic temple in Tokigawa. The photo shows its Kannondō in 2012, distinct from similarly named temples elsewhere. Check separate conditions for worship and treasure-hall visits. The shared taxi requires user registration, reservations and a check of current service.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
A first-visit stop
建具会館
A hall exhibiting and selling local joinery and crafts. Viewing displays differs from placing product orders or seeking consultations; check current guidance. Shared taxis use designated stops within the town and require registration and reservations.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
02 · A LITTLE BITE
Town guidance introduces norabō-na, sanshō, yuzu and log-grown mushrooms at the Ōno product outlet. The photo is a 2023 norabō-na example, not evidence of harvest in Tokigawa. Distinguish spring greens from autumn mushrooms and check actual stock, origins and ingredients.
Official guide03 · YOUR FIRST WALK
