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.

Kawagoku Master Hido Yoshikawa is a large-scale Buddhist monastery located in Kawagoku-Edo Tibetan Li, Saitama Prefecture, near Tokyo, a small town full of traditional Japanese culture. The Xiduoyuan is a temple founded by the master Cijue Yuanren in the Ping An era, and has a deep origin with the Tokugawa family. The Chaoyin Pavilion in the temple displays many historic shipbuilding supplies, some salvaged from the ancient shipwreck, but still preserved well. The weather was sunny and hot when I went, but in this temple that needed to wash my hands and take off the dust and enter, I naturally calmed down and paid tribute to the Buddha. The courtyard of the temple is in accordance with the traditional Japanese aesthetic layout, which reflects the ingenuity in nature. The stone buckets that lead to spring water are carved with monks and texts, which have been washed in the years and blurred, adding a sense of history.

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.

Chichibu is most famous for the Chichibu Night Festival, which is one of the three major Busan Festivals in Japan. However, it is difficult to book a hotel in Chichibu on December 2nd and 3rd every year, so you can only come normally. Chichibu Shrine is the departure and end of the festival, with a history of thousands of years. The place is not big, and there is no need for tickets. It is okay to pray for blessings and sign something.
