Kōtoku-in, Kamakura

A long way to go there from Tokyo.. Nearly two hours Comparatively small place but worth going there. An astonishing crafting method of the Great Buddha is explained if you go inside the statue with a low entrance fee. Just 20 Yen Love the place ❤

A must visit if you are in Tokyo! It is not far away (~40min from Tokyo Central). The temple and the Buddha statue can be seen in around 30min. The town (Kamakura) is a nice place to wander around and with some additional temples that could compliment the visit. The beach is also nice to go around if you have time.

nice place to visit, while I went to this place without any plan in advance. I have just checked in on the hotel at Kawasaki, then I try to find interest thing to go nearby, and someone said to me to visit Kamakura. This place will give you interesting ambiance, a lot of wonderful spot to be visited, warm people with warm place, and all the tourism information can be found anywhere around the city.

If you are in tokyo and want to spend time in a beautiful town next to the city this is the best option, the town is small but very beautiful, there is a lot of restaurants and shops. And the temple its just amazing! if you go in the morning is better because there would be less people and you would be able to take good pictures, in summer in the afternoon always rains so do not forget to bring an umbrella.

Amazing place. A MUST if you're in Japan. The entrance fee is only 200 Yen and the souvenirs are so cheap! You can move easily in train and I recommend visit Enoshima after this place.
