Then, visit Kōtoku-in, home to the Great Buddha—an awe-inspiring 13-meter bronze statue that has stood in quiet grace for centuries. Continue to Hasedera Temple, known for its statue of Kannon, the Goddess of Mercy, and panoramic views of Kamakura’s coastline. Finally, cross to Enoshima Island, where shrines, sea caves, ocean vistas, and local street food create a perfect coastal retreat.

About Tokyo
Neon-lit districts, quiet shrines, superb food and distinct neighbourhoods make up Tokyo, a vast, orderly metropolis linked by punctual trains.
Every district feels like its own city. Shibuya's famous scramble crossing and Shinjuku's towers, bars and Golden Gai alleys pulse with energy, while Harajuku mixes youth fashion with the forested calm of the Meiji Jingu shrine. In Asakusa, the Sensō-ji temple and its market street keep an older Tokyo alive, and Ginza offers polished department stores and galleries.
Top-ranked sights in Tokyo: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
