Why Travelers Love This
Kamakura is a historical city in the Kanagawa prefecture, which is known as "the Kyoto of Kanto region". It's a very popular tourist destination that attracts both locals and travellers due to presenting more than 100 temples and shrines. This tour will give you the opportunity to enjoy Japanese history and culture in Kamakura, visiting the historical place where the legendary Japanese Samurai emerged. Among the highlights to experience are a panoramic viewpoint in a mountain where a temple is located, where the ground has a large variety of blooming flowers. Another one will be seeing the bronze statue of a Buddha from the 12th century. As a Nationally Licensed Guide Interpreter, I will be able to tell you the story behind why it was constructed. I will be glad to see you and guide you in Kamakura city. Bare in mind the order of the stops listed below can be arranged at your preference.
