Kanagawa Pref. Kamakurashi Tokiwa

One of the Seven Entrances to Kamakura, ancient passes carved into mountain ridges to create passages to the city. The entrance to this old road is along Hase-dori Avenue a little ways past the Kamakura Daibutsu (in the Kotoku-in Temple). The road also connects to the Kuzuharaoka Daibutsu hiking course. The fire lookout, built into the bare rock, exudes an aura of long history and is worth hiking up to see.

Kanagawa Areas

Kanagawa prefecture acts as an extension of the Tokyo metropolis that spills over into coastal towns, most notably Yokohama city, heavily populated and known for its Chinatown and seaside attractions. Just the right distance for a day trip out of Tokyo, Kanagawa is home to some of Tokyo’s most accessible beaches, including around Kamakura, best known for its Big Buddha. Visitors can also travel a little farther afield for a weekend at Hakone onsen town.
