Kashiya Yokocho

The area is relatively peaceful and not large but is connected to the main shopping district. the kashiya yokocho area has few popular sweets store which you can get as souvenirs.

A small alleyway with so many candy shops! The candies are cheap and so delicious (even for me that do not like sugar). Traditional candy! Please get the pineapple one 🍍

Area is a very nice place to spend a day. They have many famous food options such as their sweet potato chips. This place can be crowded sometimes though. Love the traditional Japanese houses.

Quaint and elegant little area within Kawagoe. Lined with confectionary shops. Do buy the sweets and drinks there ! We had a lovely lemonade refresher.

Cute, small town! It is about 1 hr train ride from shinjuku. You have to buy this round trip pass. Look for Hon-Hawagoe express train. This way, the train doesn't make too many stops. From Hawagoe station, it's about a 15-minute walk. It's worth a day trip. There are plenty of delicious foods there.
