Otori Shine is the birth place of Tori-no Ichi Festival that is hold at the Cock days (one of the twelve daily signs) of November. Many people visit the shrine for rakes that gather the good fortunes and money in the coming year. Energetic hand-clapping and shouting 'business success' make me feel that I can really gather the good fortunes!
A town called Small Edo (Koedo) 'Kawagoe' has an easy access from metropolitan area. 'Time Bell Tower' that tells time regularly and the town scape of storehouses looks nice with snow. There're many shops and many people visit here in the daytime. You should visit here when you come nearby.◎The access to Kawagoe is easy by railways of Tobu-Tojo Line and F Liner. But on snowy days, the train service get disrupted. You can go to this town on foot from Kawagoe Station or, the bus is also available. There're parking lots for cars, but I don't recommend because they often get crowded.
