Masjid Saitama - Saitama Muslim Cultural Association (SMCA)
Mosque
👍👍 Alhamdulillah, a good place for muslims.
Except for the five times of prayer, there are also few facilities like halal shops, Quran learning school for kids, taraweeh with khatmul Quran during Ramadan and also activities to spread muslim cultures among the local people in association with the Sakura...

👍👍 Honestly, a quiz?
Quiz shrine?
No big deal
I was thinking.
Immediately after entering the narrow road on the right side of the track
There is a parking lot.
Is it normal from the entrance of the guardian dog? When you walk to
First, the nursery center on your right
The park on your left.
This park...

👍👍 浦和駅、東浦和駅からバスでかなり近くまで来ることができる。本数もそこそこあります。タクシーの場合は東浦和駅が最寄りで、だいたい1500～2000円の距離になります。

Jionji Temple

👍 埼玉県岩槻区にある慈恩寺にお詣り。
こちらは、本殿から徒歩10分程度の距離に、玄奘塔という場所があります。
三蔵法師のお墓だそうで、門が中華風で珍しい作り！
本殿の絵馬やお守りには何故か孫悟空がデザインされていたり、なかなか面白いです♩
こちらに伺って手に入れた木札がとてもデザインが良くて気に入っていま...

Mirokumitsuji Temple
Buddhist temple
😐 岩槻大師さまと呼ばれていて、ご本尊さまは、不動明王さまです。
本堂の前で参拝をすると、中にも入れますと書いてありましたので、おそらくは、寺務所に声をかければ、中のお堂でお不動さまにお参りができると思います。
(注意ですが、コロナ禍にありますので状況によっては入れない事があるかもしれません)
御朱印も、...

旧坂東家住宅見沼くらしっく館
Historical landmark
👍 20 minutes by bus from Omiya Station.
Free tour.
There is only one old folk house, but I think it is valuable because you can see the first and second floors of the house.
Be sure to climb up to the second floor and peek into the thatched roof from behind!
I was impressed by the back room on the se...
