Saitama

About

Saitama Prefecture, nestled in the Greater Tokyo area, offers a unique blend of modernity and historical charm. The Museum of Modern Art, Saitama, known as Momas, dazzles with its architecture and art. Omiya Park, a sprawling expanse, features plum trees, sports facilities, and a free-admission zoo. Its proximity to Tokyo makes Saitama an easily accessible destination for day trips, offering a tranquil escape from the urban hustle and bustle. Saitama is also renowned for its sake, boasting over 35 sake breweries scattered across its cities. While much of Saitama Prefecture is urbanized, the western borders remain untouched havens of natural beauty. The proximity to the rocky, mountainous landscape and the occasional view of Mount Fuji adds to the region's appeal.
