A must-see for any Tokyo trip. Traveling to Enoshima by train felt like going on a field trip, away from the bustling noise of the metropolis. The place is quite bustling in its own right given the influx of tourists, but the pace is much slower than in Tokyo, giving you more space for much-needed tranquility.

From Enoshima station to the island itself, you can either walk or take the bus that only has two trips per hour. It was a bad idea to walk all the way to the island through the canopy-less bridge under the cloudless noontime sun, so be sure to take the bus.

Upon stepping onto the island, you can purchase tickets for the escalator that will take you up to the three "levels" of the island until you reach the top, where the entrance to the Sea Candle is.

The temples blend perfectly with the natural features...

So you have to climb to reach at the top. Takes about 15-25min by walk depending upon once health conditions. The shrine is not so huge but the beauty is worth to watch. You can roam around the Shrine and also walk further to go the tower section. There is also a beautiful pathway to the cliff beaches where you can enjoy the beauty of ocean.
