Sugito

Few towns in Saitama Prefecture have a history as closely tied to the Nikko Kaido as Sugito. It developed as Sugito-juku, a post station on the Edo-period route connecting Edo, now Tokyo, with Nikko. Set on the level Kanto Plain near the Edo River, Sugito retains the spacious lowland character of northeastern Saitama, far removed from central Tokyo’s dense streets. The old highway’s role in moving travellers and goods remains an important part of the town’s identity. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Sugito and northeastern Saitama.
