Important Note on Access from Omiya Station

Google/Apple map may recommend you to take Saikyo Line (SK) to Minami-Yono Station, then take a local bus. But, we do NOT recommend this route because the buses are crowded.

Instead, you can take Keihin-Tohoku Line (JK) to Kita-Urawa Station, then take a local bus at the bus stop located in front of a burger restaurant (Mos Burger). All buses departing from this bus stop go to Saitama University (埼玉大学). If there is a queue, please wait for the next bus. Buses are frequent.

Excursion

If the weather is fine, we will organize a short excursion from Saitama Shintoshin Station to Hikawa-jinja Shrine in Omiya. The approach to the shrine is about 3 km long. There are many parks around the shrine where you can enjoy nature and there many cafes. The Omiya Bonsai Art Museum is also nearby. A bus from the campus to Saitama Shintoshin Station will depart at 13:00 on 21st October.

If you want to visit other places, please use public transportation. There are many options, including Kawagoe, which is 1 hour away from Saitama Shintoshin Station by local train and bus.
