【鎌倉観光】絶対に外せないおすすめスポット7選　旅行に行く前に知っておきたい人気スポットを紹介します！Kamakura

[Music] Approximately a 20-minute walk from Kamakura Station, Zeniarai Benzaiten Ugafuku Shrine sits quietly in the mountains just beyond the tunnel . Known as Kamakura’s premier wealth-seeking spot, it ‘s said to have been founded in 1185 by Minamoto no Yoritomo after receiving a revelation in a dream. The shrine’s enshrined deities are Ugajin and Benzaiten, one of the Seven Lucky Gods. While known as the god of business prosperity and wealth, she originally also served as the god of bountiful harvests and water. The water that springs from the cave is called “zeniarai water,” and records show that the Hojo clan visited the shrine during the Muromachi period to pray for wealth. It is believed that washing money in this water will return many times over , and many people have long visited the shrine. To wash money, after visiting the inner shrine, place it in a borrowed basket and purify it by pouring about three ladles of water over it. You can wash either coins or banknotes, but it’s a good idea to bring a handkerchief to dry the banknotes with. It is said that it is best not to keep washed money, but to wipe it and return it to your wallet for use. The sight of carefully purifying money by placing it in a colander is a unique experience at this shrine. In addition to the main hall, the grounds are dotted with shrines offering prayers for good fortune and business prosperity, warmly welcoming visitors. Lucky charms and goshuin stamps for financial luck are also popular along the approach to the shrine. Zeniarai Benzaiten Ugafuku Shrine is a must-see destination during your travels. Komachi-dori, stretching alongside the main approach to Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, is now a popular spot stretching approximately 360 meters and lined with over 300 shops, but its history began with the birth of the Kamakura shogunate. During the Kamakura period, this street developed as a “monzenmachi” (temple town) that supported the traffic of people visiting Hachimangu Shrine. Teahouses, souvenir shops, and accommodations lined the street, and records say it was a lively place, bustling with samurai, monks, and merchants. During the Edo period , visiting Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine became a major source of enjoyment for the common people, and the area flourished as an inn and marketplace. Komachi-dori served as the “artery connecting Kamakura’s economy and faith,” making it an essential part of town life. Its prosperity continued into modern times, evolving during the Meiji and Taisho periods as it incorporated Western influences. Today, the street is lined with cafes, Western-style pastries, and modern general stores, while long-established Japanese confectioneries and shops selling traditional crafts remain thriving. The coexistence of modern and old-fashioned Kamakura is what makes Komachi-dori so appealing. Popular gourmet foods like “Hato Sable,” “Kamakura Croquettes,” and dishes using shirasu (whitebait) are highly popular with tourists, but behind these is the unbroken tradition of hospitality for worshippers. Komachi-dori is more than just a gourmet street; it is a road that conveys the memories of Kamakura’s life and faith, which flourished around Hachimangu Shrine. Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine is an essential attraction for any visitor to Kamakura. This shrine was venerated as the guardian deity of the samurai class and established as the center of Kamakura when Minamoto no Yoritomo established the Kamakura Shogunate. Its founding dates back to 1063, at the end of the Heian period, when Minamoto no Yoriyoshi enshrined Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine in Kyoto . The shrine grounds begin with a long approach called Dankazura, and continue through the dance hall and stone steps to the vibrant vermilion-lacquered main shrine. Each visit offers a glimpse into the glory of the Minamoto clan and the deep faith of the samurai. Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine has also served as a political stage, bearing witness to numerous historical events. The shrine is dotted with sites that tell the story of the rise and fall of the samurai government, such as the “Masako Stone” erected by Yoritomo’s wife, Hojo Masako, and the site of the large ginkgo tree where Minamoto no Sanetomo was assassinated . Cherry blossoms in spring and autumn leaves add a touch of color to the area, drawing crowds to the shrine for New Year’s visits and yabusame (horseback archery) rituals. Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine is a symbol of Kamakura’s faith and history, a sacred place that conveys the spirit of Kamakura, the capital of samurai, to visitors. The popular local train running along the Shonan coastline, the Enoshima Electric Railway, commonly known as the “Enoden,” offers breathtaking views and history along the way. From the train window, the blue ocean of Shonan, Enoshima, and the cityscape of the ancient capital Kamakura unfold one after the other, creating a series of stunning views that will have you snapping photos. Furthermore, as the train passes through residential areas that are right up against the tracks, it feels as if the train is one with the city. It evokes a sense of nostalgia and a sense of travel. The Enoden is more than just a mode of transportation; it’s a “moving tourist attraction” that connects the charms of Shonan and Kamakura. Enjoy a relaxing ride immersed in the scenery and history. Hasedera Temple is one of Kamakura’s most famous temples. It is said to have been founded in 736 AD, during the Nara period (the 8th year of Tenpyo), making it a historic temple with over a thousand years of history. It flourished as a sacred place for Kannon worship, attracting the devout samurai, including Minamoto no Yoritomo, during the Kamakura period. The temple grounds spread across the mountain slope, allowing one to imagine the monks of the past praying while facing nature . Hasedera Temple is also known as the “Temple of Flowers,” but behind its splendor lies a deep history of religious worship. In particular, early summer hydrangeas have long been beloved by people as a vibrant flower during the rainy season, and the sight of them filling the approach to the temple grounds symbolizes the harmony between faith and nature . Another highlight is the observation deck. From here, you can see views of Yuigahama Beach and Sagami Bay, views that Kamakura samurai would have enjoyed. Imagine the scenery that these people saw back then , and this historical exploration is truly a joy. Another notable feature is the Benten Cave. While Benzaiten and her attendants are enshrined here , the rock walls are adorned with carvings symbolizing the period of Shinto-Buddhist syncretism , allowing visitors to experience the religious culture of the Kamakura period. The cave, which served as both a place of training and a stage for popular faith, truly embodies history. Hasedera Temple thus blends history and nature, passing from its founding in the Nara period through the samurai culture of the Kamakura period and on to the faith of the common people . We invite you to experience the eternal passage of time as you stroll through the temple grounds. Next, we’ll introduce the Great Buddha, a symbol of Kamakura. This bronze statue, approximately 11.3 meters tall and weighing approximately 121 tons, was built in 1252 during the Kamakura period. Originally housed within a building called the Great Buddha Hall, the building was destroyed by repeated natural disasters, and it now stands exposed outdoors. Its imposing form warmly welcomes visitors, enduring the elements . The temple grounds are also home to a tranquil garden and approach, allowing visitors to spend a relaxing stroll. The combination of the Great Buddha and the seasonal scenery makes it a popular photo spot. Kotoku-in Temple is not only historically significant, but also a symbol of Kamakura’s culture and the faith of its people. Feel the peace and strength of this Great Buddha and experience the profound history of Kamakura. The Kamakura High School Station railroad crossing, a scenic spot overlooking the Shonan Sea, is extremely popular with tourists and train enthusiasts . Spreading before you is the beautiful view of the sparkling blue Sagami Bay and Enoshima in the distance. This railroad crossing is famous as a sacred site for the basketball manga and anime “Slam Dunk.” The view of the railroad crossing overlapping with the sea, which appears in the anime’s opening credits, is particularly popular, attracting many visitors from Japan and abroad. Listening to the sound of the waves and the sea breeze while waiting for a train to pass is truly a unique Shonan experience. However, recently there have been many people who violate etiquette and cause trouble, which seems to be causing trouble for local residents, so please be mindful of etiquette and safety while you enjoy the scenery at your leisure.
