Kameya Yamazaki Tea Shop sits past the Kawagoe Chamber of Commerce toward Taisho Roman Yume-dori. Beyond a Meiji-style brick wall beside the shop is a massive "Ozura" (large warehouse) with a beautiful white plaster finish. Built in 1850, it is exceptionally large and precious for having survived the Great Meiji Fire.
