When saying Kamakura, what first comes to mind is the great Buddha statue, but there are many other things to discover.

The city can indeed boast numerous temples and shrines, from the most grandiose to the smallest, discreetly hidden along a forest path. With a knowledgeable guide, it is possible to enjoy Kamakura’s essentials in one day.
