Saitama is the capital and largest city of Saitama Prefecture, Japan. Its area incorporates the former cities of Urawa, Ōmiya, Yono and Iwatsuki. It is a city designated by government ordinance. As of 1 February 2021, the city had an estimated population of 1,324,854, and a population density of 6,093 people per km2. Its total area is 217.43 square kilometres (83.95 sq mi).
Reading Saitama against the global hubs: Tokyo (~26 km), Singapore (~5,327 km), Sydney (~7,851 km) are the close ones, with São Paulo (~18,514 km) sitting on the opposite side of the planet — a good gut check when judging logistics windows.
Saitama sits inside Japonya — the Eastern Asia subregion, capital Tokyo, languages Japanese, currency JPY (¥).
The closest mapped neighbors of Saitama are Yono (3 km), Sashiōgi (7 km), Hasuda (7 km), Iwatsuki (7 km), so commuter, logistics and same-day-trip planning will usually pull from this cluster.
Upcoming country holiday signals around Saitama: Shōwa Day, Constitution Memorial Day, Greenery Day. Bake those into launch, on-call, and travel windows for Japonya.
Closest curated airport references from Saitama: HND Tokyo (42 km), NRT Narita (68 km), KIJ Niigata (233 km).
In 2015, A baseball game between the Baltimore Orioles and the Chicago White Sox sets the all-time low attendance mark for Major League Baseball. Zero fans were in attendance for the game, as the stadium was officially closed to the public due to the 2015 Baltimore protests.
