🏯Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine
The symbol of Kamakura, there are fewer people in the morning, and you can feel the solemn atmosphere of the shrine quietly. Don't miss the thousand-year-old ginkgo tree next to the dance hall (especially beautiful in winter) and the quiet path behind the shrine.

⛩️Komachi-dori Shopping Street
It is a 5-minute walk from Hachimangu Omotesando. Along the way, you can taste freshly baked senbei, Kamakura wild vegetable croquettes, or buy local specialty souvenirs such as pigeon skewers (Hasebure).

🎎Hase-dera Temple
Take the Enoden to "Hase Station" and walk for 10 minutes. It is famous for its seasonal flowers, especially charming when the hydrangeas are in full bloom in June. The "Miharadai" in the temple overlooks the Yuigahama coast.
The Kamakura Yasai Shokudo near Hasedera Temple offers set meals with local vegetables, or you can choose the sea view restaurant Kaisai Temple (reservations required) to taste fresh seafood from the Shonan Coast.

🪷Tokuin Kamakura Buddha
A 15-minute walk from Hasedera Temple, visit the bronze Buddha, a national treasure of Japan. You can pay to enter the interior and feel the shock of historical craftsmanship.

🕰️Enoden Coast Walk
Take the retro Enoden to Inamuragasaki Station, stroll along the seaside trail, and enjoy the superb view of Mount Fuji and the Shonan Coast (only on sunny days).

🏖️Yuigahama Beach Coast
In summer, you can walk on the sand and waves, and in winter, it is suitable for sitting quietly and watching the sunset. The honey toast at the nearby cafe "Pacific DRIVE-IN" is the perfect ending.
