Kamakura

One of our first adventures was to the town of Kamakura where we saw the Great Buddha of Kotokuin. We made many more visits to Kamakura, including New Year's eve. There are many beautiful shrines and temples which are centuries old. The one where this girl was posing for a photo was made of beautiful cypress.

The train is called the Enoden line - part train, part trolley. For five yen we were able to go inside the Buddha statue.
