Kashiya Yokocho or "sweets store alley" is a short and narrow lane in central Kawagoe, not far from the bell tower. It is lined by several stores, housed in old buildings and selling traditional Japanese sweets. Among the sweets sold are various candies, rice crackers, sugar coated, deep fried cookies (karinto) and sweets made of red bean paste and sweet potatoes.
