The Symbol of Kamakura, the Beautiful Nature-Filled “Tsurugaoka Hachimangu”.
Tsurugaoka Hachimangu is the symbol of Kamakura, located in the heart of the city. It is frequented by many worshipers as a shrine related to Minamoto no Yorimoto, the founder of the Kamakura shogunate. The current main shrine, which was built in 1828, has been designated as an Important Cultural Asset of Japan.
The shrine is also famous for its beautiful natural scenery. The Genpei Ponds feature beautiful cherry blossoms in the spring and lotus flowers in the summer. During the fall, the area around Shirahata-Jinja Shrine is filled with brightly colored fall leaves, and in the winter you can visit the Peony Garden to see lovely New Years’ peonies.

站在湘南海岸看夕陽西下的江之島，海風吹拂也是很愜意。
