- Ranzan Valley
- Travel / Tourism
- Saitama Pref. Hikigunranzanmachi Kamagata
- This wonderful scenic spot in Saitama prefecture is quite famous for its fall leaves. When Dr. Seiroku Honda—a forestry expert—visited this area in 1928, he gave it the name “Ranzan Valley,” purportedly because the beautiful view of fall leaves and red pines around the gorge reminded him of Kyoto’s Arashiyama. There is a pathway around the valley for you to enjoy a casual stroll. The Ranzan Valley Momiji Festival is held every fall during peak leaf season. Lots of sightseers come to enjoy that.

- Nakatsu Gorge
- Travel / Tourism
- Saitama Pref. Chichibushi Nakatsugawa
- A beautifully scenic gorge extending approximately 10 kilometers created by the Nakatsu River, a tributary of the Arakawa River. The azaleas in spring, the fresh green of early summer are lovely, but the autumn foliage is particularly recommended. The sight of the steep walls of the gorge dyed red and gold is, in a word, stunning.

Saitama Areas
Eclipsed by neighboring Tokyo, Saitama is often branded as the sleepy suburbs. However, look a little deeper and you’ll uncover quaint towns bursting with history and crafts from the kurazukuri Edo-period clay houses of Kawagoe to the ancient tree-enveloped temples of Chichibu.
