Summer trip in Kamakura

Finally, i was able to visit Kamakura City!!! 

It's an old city in Kanagawa Prefecture which is rich in historical, traditional and cultural sites.  
It was a political center of medieval Japan.
 Kamakura is also well-known as 
the version of Kyoto in eastern Japan.
   
I enjoyed many shrines, temples and other old facilities around.

Great Buddha in Kotokuin Temple. 
A monumental outdoor bronze statue of Amida Buddha.


Bamboo grove in Hokokuji Temple

Everyone should not miss riding this... 
Enoden line, popular old train in Kamakura.  
It connects Kamakura to Fujisawa via Enoshima. 

Japanese sweets
so sweet !!

Hasedera Temple

They also have sand beaches where everyone can enjoy especially during summers!  

I am not yet done touring around Kamakura ... I have heard that it's better to visit the place during autumn season because the autumn leaves are stunning everywhere ... so hopefully, i will visit the place again ... most probably in Enoshima area xx
