Nearby spots
Marking 2100 years, Gochinza, a Sōja of Chichibu, has been revered since ancient times. In a forest of oak, there is an atmosphere with style and solemn beauty. The existing main building of the shrine is a contribution of Ieyasu Tokugawa in 1592 and was designated as Saitama Prefecture’s tangible cultural property due to the fact that it holds much of the Edo period’s early architectural style.
Chichibu's souvenirs are all here! If you are looking for souvenirs of Chichibu, why not visit here? They have a wide range of products from popular souvenirs of the Chichibu area to the local mascot character, Potekuma-kun goods.
This store was originally the main building of a meisen silk wholesaler that prospered in the Taisho era. It has now been restored as a tourist center that also displays and sells local products. You can also try out the local cuisine at the soba noodle shop!
This facility was built in the early Meiji period around 150 years ago as a merchant's inn. Chichibu-Kan was renovated while maintaining its original construction and atmosphere as much as possible and re-opened as a base for social interaction and tourism. The first floor is a free rest area with a large fireplace, and surrounding it are rental boxes where citizens can display and sell their handicrafts and ceramics. Whether it's for tourism information or to mingle with the locals, we hope you will visit Hot Spot Chichibu-kan!
