Keyaki Avenue
Planted along National Route 463, locally called Saidai-dori Road, in the western area of Saitama City are nearly 2400 Japanese zelkova trees, the prefectural tree of Saitama. The spot is famous as the longest row of zelkova trees in all of Japan. Zelkova have long grown naturally throughout Saitama prefecture and have been designated as natural monuments throughout the area, including the Great Zelkova of Seiganji, leading to this location being considered a symbol of Saitama.
