Here are some of photos of a cherry blossom viewing filled weekend. It included, sake tasting, and plenty of photo opportunities around Ogawamachi’s surrounding nature. The town is located in Saitama, little more than aone hour away from Tokyo’s Ikebukuro via Tobu Tojo Line.

Please feel free to send me your comments at the end of this blog. I am always happy about feedback.

Thank you very much,

Photo Opportunities – Hiking in Ogawamachi, Saitama – 小川町埼玉ハイキング

Posted on April 6, 2017

Just moved to Ogawamachi, Saitama prefecture in Japan a couple of weeks ago and immediately started to explore the area with my usual partner, my camera.

Ogawamachi, in Saitama Prefecture close to Tokyo, offers many opportunities to explore nature, especially with a camera of any kind. It is also kids friendly with a mountain rollercoaster, observatory and playground located at Mount Sengen Park relatively close to the station (also reachable via taxi if the walk from the station is too long). Various hiking paths lead to nearby mountain tops of Mount Sengen (~280m) accessible within few hours round trip from Ogawamachi Station. This place is at the end of the Tobu Tojo Train line from Ikebukuro, Tokyo, (~1 hour 15 mins express train),  or, Hajiko Line starting at Hachioji.

Hikes feature many kinds of flowers, insects, wildlife, a mountain roller coaster, playgrounds, shrines, historic sites and much more. Best of all, Ogawamachi has 2 Hot Springs, 3 Sake Breweries, One Winery and one Micro Brewery just in case if a hike calls for a food or drink break. It also has a supermarket close to the station including various stores such as a wonderful bakery, (going there almost every day), groceries, and a Dollar (100yen) store. The area is also not overrun by hikers such as more popular areas around Tokyo offering an opportunity to discover a more unseen Japan. Best of all everybody here is friendly and helpful.

For sure try some of the local foods in one of the restaurants in town. Ogawamachi is known for growing food organically including rice. Macrobiotic food is a common goal of people living here. This is one of the reasons why I moved here, besides the kids friendly environment. What is not available here, fortunately, are common fast-food chain stores. Food here is an important matter and gets prepared very carefully on an individual basis in most restaurants. There are Chinese ramen, Indian curry, and, of course, Japanese restaurants of many kinds, and, Izakaya peppered throughout town.

If biking then Ogawamachi is a good place to take a break before moving on to Chichibu close by.

Here are some photos from my most recent outings mostly at Mount Sengen and the town of Ogawamachi.

常盤平さくらまつり2017年 Tokiwadaira Sakura Festival – Japan

Posted on April 2, 2017

Really enjoyed this weekend’s Cherry Blossom Festival in Tokiwadaira, Chiba. Here are some photos. Hopefully they would provide an idea about the spirit of this festivity attended by thousands of people over the last two days. There was ample amount of food of any kind. Children got their share playing games and winning small plastic toys. It was a happy Saturday and Sunday for all, away from daily choirs and duties.
