Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Edo with the "Toki no Kane" (Bell of Time) that tells the time in Little Edo

Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Edo at the "Toki no Kane" (Bell of Time), which tells the time of Little Edo The "Toki no Kane" (Bell of Time), a symbol of Kawagoe, is a historic bell tower that has been telling the time to the town since the Edo period. The current bell tower was rebuilt in the Meiji period, but the beautiful sound of the bell still echoes through the town of Kawagoe four times a day. The author visited at dusk. The moment the bell chimes as the setting sun shines on the warehouse-style townscape, it feels like you've traveled back in time. There are cafes, general stores, and Japanese sweet shops in the surrounding area, so just strolling around is exciting. It's free to visit, and it's great for taking photos. It's recommended for both solo travelers and couples who want to enjoy the retro townscape. Why not start your trip to Kawagoe with the sound of this bell? Access ・About 10 minutes on foot from Hon-Kawagoe Station on the Seibu Shinjuku Line ・About 20 minutes on foot from Kawagoe Station on the JR and Tobu Tojo Lines ・Located in the Ichibangai area, it can be enjoyed as a set with the Kurazukuri streetscape #Domestic travel #Couple travel #Solo travel #Absolutely free travel
