![]() ![]() Strolling up Komachi-dori shopping street from Kamakura Station heading towards Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, you’ll find a myriad of restaurants advertising one product in particular – shirasu. Disembark at either Kita-Kamakura Station or the more centrally-located Kamakura Station. It’s easy to reach Kamakura directly from Tokyo, being only a quick one-hour train ride away on the JR Yokosuka Line or the JR Shonan Shinjuku Line (certain trains only). Foodie? Feast on crisp, fresh Kamakura vegetables and the area’s specialty seafood of shirasu. History buff? Meander around walkable Kamakura and explore the ancient capital’s statue of the Great Buddha, numerous other temples with compact Japanese gardens, or historic shrines. Beach bum? Enjoy water sports or soak in the sun on kilometers of coastline. Close by Tokyo in neighboring Kanagawa Prefecture, the Shonan region is a wide expanse along the coast of Sagami Bay that is a multifaceted destination offering something for everyone. ![]()
