Kanto Region Mid-May

[neutralph]

Going back to Tokyo again this mid-May... alone. This time thought of attending a rock concert in Tokyo, exploring Saitama (Looks like the Yilan version of Taipei?) and Nikko (17-18 May there's a archery festival I think) that I missed last trip with a group of friends. Just wondering if anyone here has experiences in Saitama to share.

What exactly are you hoping to experience in Saitama?

While I was staying in Tokyo, I did a day trip to Nagatoro for the Arakawa Rapids. My Japanese friends made me buy them rakkyo (honestly the best I've tried) from there. They're also known for their maple products, so you can look out for those!
