From the east exit of Omiya Station, walk for about ten minutes to reach this shrine. The shrine is quite large. It is said that the emperor has also come before. First of all, you can see the big red bird house. There are many local residents who come to visit. The nearby park is very green. You can also stroll around.

This is a must-check in net red place for a Tokyo Japan tour group. In April 2015, I came to Japan for a free trip. I made an appointment to visit the Imperial Palace. I saw a lot of tourists outside on the Duoqiao. After the epidemic, I came to Tokyo, Japan, and I checked in to see the Imperial Palace outside the Duoqiao.

诗道芬-因-布赖施高周处
Kawago is not far from Tokyo, but it seems to be in this place, crossing back to Japan a century ago, in the historical protection area, you can see merchants' Tibetan buildings, candy shops, temples, various shops, banks and other old-fashioned buildings. It is a place to appreciate, about 120 years ago, the town that served as a thriving business center and transportation hub in Japan.
