This map is useful for touring Koedo Kawagoe. Because online maps like Google Maps can be difficult to get a bird’s-eye view of the entire area due to their scale, this map was created using OpenStreetMap to provide a clear overview.
As you can see, Koedo Kawagoe’s tourist area is located north of the city center. Therefore, if you’re visiting by train, you’ll need to travel by foot or bus.

If you’re traveling by bus, Tobu Bus and Eagle Bus operate tourist buses.
If you’re coming by car, parking fees are higher in the tourist areas. We particularly recommend using the free tourist parking lots run by the city. Additionally, Maruhiro Department Store’s parking lot offers free parking for up to two hours with purchases of 1,000 yen or more (100 yen for every 30 minutes thereafter).
