67 articles

Kamakura was Japan's de facto capital in the 12th century and remains one of the country's most rewarding day trips from Tokyo. The Great Buddha at Kotoku-in, the hiking trails between temples, the Yuigahama beach, and a surprisingly lively nightlife scene make Kamakura a full destination. These guides cover the top sights, coastal walks, seasonal timing, and after-dark options.
