Where to stay in Sakaecho
Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.
Rooms are a city matter here. Sakaecho is one of the residential chō that make up Sōka rather than a hotel quarter of its own, so a bed is chosen at the scale of the whole Saitama Prefecture city and the district simply fixes which side of it you sleep on. The Adachi Park of Living Things and the Ikō Archaeological Site Park are listed among the points around Sōka.
