After hectic Tsukiji we decided Kamakura would be a good half-day trip from Tokyo, and it couldn’t have been more soothing. Kamakura is a small city in the Kanagawa prefecture with a sea coast, south of Tokyo, famous for its temples, shrines and beaches, and was once the capital of Japan during the Kamakura period. You can see Engaku-ji in the background.
