What other travelers are saying about Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine
This shrine is so pretty. I love the ema board tunnel. There are a lot of families with kids as well as students here, so it's quite crowded the day I went to visit. To get here you can take bus number 6 from Kawagoe station. Once done visiting you can go to the town where the Toki no Kane is and try some local delicacies and shop around, you can take bus number 6 to the town from the shrine.
a LOT of photo opportunities!!! Guests wear kimono for this shrine ^_^
There’s a lot of fortune and charms for purchase. Nice place for a walk in nature too.
This is something I would only visit once though 👍
Free shrine to enter
A great shrine to visit in Kawagoe. Most locals also came here to pray.. It is an aesthetic place to take some unique photos of the temple, with wind chimes creating its’ own unique sound & vibe.. It can get crowded & difficult to take some photos, but it was also because we visited during the public holiday.. Recommend visiting on weekdays to fully enjoy the place!
A beautiful shrine to walk through and cool off. Very quiet and well shaded with trees. Many different fortune charms to get. Tons of spots for photos. A great place to rest and enjoy some peace and quiet.
I came for the legendary “Enmusubi Stones”! Arrived early in the morning and got the first spot in line! The facilities and scenery are beautiful, the grand torii gate is magnificent, and the omamori charms are adorable!
