Michinoeki(s) in Saitama Prefecture are within a day trip distance from the Tokyo metropolitan area.
Many of the michinoeki(s) focus on locally produced agricultural products,
and many customers from the Tokyo metropolitan area come to the michinoeki(s) to purchase inexpensive,
fresh agricultural products.
Fukaya green onions and strawberries are especially famous in Saitama Prefecture.
The exception is a michinoeki in the Chichibu region in the western part of the prefecture.
Although few visitors come to these stations, it is possible to spend a relaxing time at the onsen and other facilities.
