"Ōmiya Bonsai Village" est le surnom de la pépinière de bonsaï à Bonsai-cho, dans la ville de Saitama. Le village de bonsaï est situé près de la gare d'Omiya-koen sur la ligne Tobu-Noda et est fermé tous les jeudis. Le village de bonsaï a été fondé en 1925, mais en raison des effets négatifs du grand tremblement de terre du Kanto de 1923, un emplacement alternatif dans le centre de Tokyo a été recherché. En raison de l'approvisionnement élevé en eau potable et du sol bon marché, le village a ainsi été installé à Omiya. Plusieurs pépinières de bonsaï et un excellent musée d'art du bonsaï sont situés dans le quartier. Les maisons privées de la région ont généralement une collection de bonsaïs dans leurs jardins.
