What do you love most about Kamakura?
"Kamakura is a perfect combination of beautiful temples, cool beaches, gorgeous nature and nice cafés only 50 minutes from Tokyo, so you can even plan a day trip there if you are short on time. "
A 'MUST' whilst you're there?
@vahineotaku_travels 's Top Tips
"Rent an electric bike to really enjoy Kamakura at your pace and get to lesser-known places, and research which flowers are in bloom the season you visit because their gardens are really next-level!"
Favourite time of year to visit Kamakura
"Kamakura is very famous for its hydrangea garden, so I'd recommend visiting in June when it's hot and the flowers are in full bloom. Then you can enjoy both the flowers and the beaches!"
