Japan To-do:

[edit] Misato?

Is there a town/village in Kodama District, Saitama named Misato? The list under the district includes a link to the city of Misato, Saitama. If there is also a village/town, I think the article for the place that is not the city should be named Misato, Saitama (Kodama). -- Rick Block 02:44, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)

What did the capital use to be before the creation of Saitama City? Was it Urawa? (Urawa ward is the location of the government buildings) Nik42 06:14, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I believe it was Urawa -- ran (talk) 15:42, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)

The prefectural capital is presently in Urawa-ku, Saitama, so unless it moved, it was previously in Urawa-shi. Fg2 21:36, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
I checked a 1997 map I had lying in the closet. The prefecture office is in the same spot as it is now, so, Urawa is correct. Neier 12:12, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Can we add the John Lennon Museum to the tourism section? Kansaikiwi 15:15, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
