Epic Day Trips from Tokyo
The city of Kamakura in Kanagawa prefecture is most famous as the home of Japan‘s Big Buddha statue, but Kotoku-in is only the beginning of all there is to enjoy here. From Buddhist temples that span history (Hase-dera dates back to the 8th century, while Tsurugaoka Hachimangu in the city center is only 200 years old) to a bamboo forest (Hokoku-ji) that rivals Arashiyama in Kyoto, Kamakura is one of the best Tokyo day trips you can take.
