To the Information Center (near Lacoste), the Security Personnel and the one who gave back the missing item. Thank you so much for the wonderful service and kind heart. Today my son lost his phone and these people helped us retrieved the item. Very fast and smooth transaction. Thank you so much. Very good service ❤️🙏 God bless!

Good shopping area. We had an American hotdog ($1.50 for hotdogs and coke) at Costco attached to the mall. And went to IKEA as well. Then shopping in the near by mall. It has a very large baby store in there too!

10 of us visited here on the first day of the year. Very nice place. Huge shopping mall. It takes 5 minutes to reach here from the station. There are many options for outdoor sports for kids. Where showrooms of all the preferred brands are visible. I bought the shoe from GU. The sky was so clear that day, Mount Fuji was visible to everyone. They have a free parking lot. There are many facilities for recreation. Moreover, food court and many more things are here. Nice place to shop.

A beautiful view from lalaport. I have been shopping here since it first opened many years ago. All major shopping chain stores, restaurants, and other mall attractions. Close to JR Shin misato station. Smoking rooms and plenty of toilets. Over the years, stores have come and gone. Access by car at the weekend maybe difficult. Parking for cars is good.

Misatoshi Public Library Misato City Waku-waku Library

(Translated by Google) I was surprised at how beautiful the building was! Although there were few benches at the front, there were benches with a nice view, and everyone was relaxing. I'm a resident of Katsushika Ward, but I envy the citizens of Misato. (Original) とてもきれいな建物でびっくりしました!表には少ないけれど眺めのよいベンチもあり皆さんのんびりしていました。私は葛飾区民だけど三郷市民がうらやましい。

(Translated by Google) It's said to hold about 22,000 books for a city library, so it's a bit small, but it's beautiful. The study space, which originally seats about 10 people, has individual lights and outlets. There is a partition between the seats next to each other, but due to C19, that number has been reduced by half (on Saturdays and Sundays, people line up to get seats even before the museum opens!). There is also plenty of parking space available considering the size. Making a fuss, running around, shouting for his mother... Isn't it okay to tell the little boy to be careful or to call out to him? There are many situations where I think so. It's simply the fault of the insane parents, but there are also many staff members, so I'd like things to improve. (Original) 市内の図書館としては約22,000冊…との事なので、規模は小さめですがキレイです。 本来10席程度の勉強スペースには、個々に電灯・コンセント有。 隣席とも仕切りがありますが、C19により半減してしまいました(土日は開館前から席取りの行列!)。 駐車場も規模の割には多めに完備されてます。 大騒ぎする・走り回る・母親を呼び叫ぶ…チビッコに、注意と言うか声掛けしてもいいんじゃないかな?と思う状況が多いです。 単に非常識な親が悪いんですが、職員サンも多いので、改善して欲しいです。

(Translated by Google) For women who cannot use library cards I felt bad because there was a man who was treating me in an extremely high-pressure way. Should I tell the city? (Original) 図書カードが使えない風の女性に めちゃくちゃ高圧的に接している男性がいて気分が悪かったです。市に言えばいいのだろうか

(Translated by Google) I got tangled up with a homeless (?) smelly and dirty old man. The elementary school students next to me laughed at me while I was trying to ignore the fact that I was preaching in a bossy way (lol). Usually quiet and well-mannered, but be careful of bald dads. (Original) ホームレス(?)の臭くて汚いおじさんに絡まれた なんか偉そうに説教してるのスルーしてたら隣の小学生に笑われてた(笑) 普段は静かで民度はいいけど、ハゲ親父に注意

(Translated by Google) Only half of the reading and study spaces are open to prevent infection, and only about four people can sit in the entire building. It would be impossible to read in the library because it was full during the day on weekdays. All seats are already open at Rira in neighboring Yashio City and Oashisu in Yoshikawa City, and I hope they will adjust to the current atmosphere in Japan soon. inconvenience (Original) 本を読んだり勉強するスペースは感染予防で半分しか開放しておらず、全館で4人程しか座れません。平日の日中で埋まっていたので図書館内での読書は不可能といってもいいでしょう。 となりの八潮市のりらーと、吉川市のおあしすでは既に全席開放していますし、そろそろ現在の日本の空気感に合わせてほしいです。不便

(Translated by Google) It's beautiful and you can read the latest magazines, which is highly praised. However, the number of books is very small. Books such as The Phoenix that are actually stored in the back of the library, as well as books from other libraries in the city, can be ordered from a computer, so if you actively search for the book you want to read, you'll be surprised at how many books you can read. However, it may be a little difficult to get the experience of just looking at a bookshelf and thinking, ``Oh! This looks interesting!'' (Original) 綺麗だし最新の雑誌も読めるのは高評価。 ただし蔵書数は非常に少ない。 火の鳥など実は裏にしまってある書籍や、市内の他の図書館にある蔵書はパソコンから取り寄せられることもできるので、読みたい本を能動的に探せば意外と読める本は多い。 だが本棚をさーっと眺めて「お!これおもしろそう!」という経験は少し得られにくいかも。

(Translated by Google) A very disappointing library. It is small in size and has few types of books. I would like to appeal to Misato City for improvements. The book also looks tattered. As others have commented, Misato City claims to be the best reading town in Japan, but it is only in name. "Reading notebooks" are distributed so that you can record the books you read, and I think this is a good idea because it gives you a sense of accomplishment when you read a book, but in the first place, there aren't many books you want to read. So... If you don't have a lot of money to buy books, aren't there ways to get them from BOOKOFF or Mercari, or by asking for donations? (Original) 非常に残念な図書館。規模も小さく、本の種類も少ない。三郷市に改善を訴えたいです。 本もボロボロな印象です。 他の方もコメントしてますが三郷市では日本一の読書のまちを名乗っていますが、名ばかりです。 「読書ノート」を配布していて読んだ本を記録することができる様になっていてコレ自体は本を読んだ達成感を得られていいアイディアだと思いますが、そもそも読みたい本が少ないので… 本を買う予算が少ないなら、BOOKOFFとかメルカリで入手するとか寄付を募るとかやり方はあるのではないでしょうか?

(Translated by Google) It was rebuilt several years ago and is now beautiful, but it is still very small to be considered a city library. A local museum is also attached. (Original) 数年前に建て替えられてきれいになりましたが、市立図書館というには規模がとても小さいです。郷土資料館が併設されています。

(Translated by Google) At the library level, it's 2 stars, but... There are several autographs by the author, and there is also a local museum...3 stars. (Original) 図書館レベルでは、星2つだが… 著者のサインが 何枚かあり 郷土博物館も併設されているので…星 3つ

It is good retail park with a major supermarket and hardware store among others. The only missing bit is a large household electrical store, but apart from that it has pretty much everything.

I bring my kids in here, because he like a train so much. The other one is Thomas train. Thank you Thomas town 💝
Dendy Lay — Google review
Good place for kids to play. It's inside the lalaport where you can enjoy shopping, eating and kids can have their fun as well. I really enjoyed their fresh popcorn.
anika suki (anika_suki) — Google review
It's a money grab place where you purchase Thomas tokens to use the attractions. Every attraction requires a number of tokens that don't really reflect their value. For example a 2 minute Thomas carousel ride costs almost a 1000 yen for two children. I'd give it one star if my young kids didn't enjoy a part of it. However it's definitely not worth the money, I don't recommend using it.
Robert Poulton — Google review
The place is okay if your kid is really a fan of Thomas or a kindergartner. The train ride may be fun for pre-schoolers only. Other attractions are just ok. The gift shop has some decent and interesting items and is within a reasonable price.
Syed Faisal — Google review
It's quite small, crowded and over priced. Very gimmicky. The rides/ activities are too short and you have to wait for a long time. It didn't entertain my kids as much as other play areas do. Staff weren't that friendly or helpful. Strollers don't fit.

It was expensive and lacked interesting attraction
Jehandad Kamal — Google review
It’s another alternitive other than Thomasland in Fuji Q, closer to town. Quite small and expensive, but lots of small games, good variety, doesn’t take all day here! The best thing is that it’s connected to a huge mall with lots of restaurants and next to Costco. Good outing for the whole family.
Christina Tsao — Google review
The main attraction is a train that slowly travels into a tunnel for 15 seconds, stops, they play a Thomas video from the TV series, then the train turns around and makes the 15 second return journey.

Nature & Parks
Saitama Prefectural Misato Park is an attractive riverside park that offers multiple amenities to visitors. It features beautiful cherry blossoms, walking paths, open grassy areas, and playgrounds for children. The park also has ample space for various activities such as morning walks, workouts, picnics or athletics. Additionally, there are concession food trucks available to satisfy hunger needs.
This is probably one of the best parks in Misato and even surrounding areas near Matsudo. The park has a lot to offer! The size of the park is very large with a variety of trees, wildlife and lakes. Kid’s adventure park with many activities for kids. The lake has people fishing there. Loads of nature and forest backdrop. It also has an office for park security!
Darren Bloomfield — Google review
The BBQ area is separated from the park and hence it's closing time is 3. While the park is open until 7 pm. You need a tent to protect you from the sun if you opt for area which is like 600 yen (actually 580 ish) While the area that cost 1200 and has a pit has trees to offer shade.
