Ennoji temple in Kamakura is a hidden gem that offers a peaceful escape from the bustling city. Nestled amidst lush greenery, this temple exudes a sense of tranquility and spirituality. The beautifully preserved main hall and serene garden create a serene atmosphere, making it a delightful spot for introspection and reflection. Pictures inside are allowed. If you are visiting Kencho-ji nearby it's worth it!

A very old and weathered temple that worships the Ten Judges of Hell. The temple as a whole is beautifully aged and not as kept up as many other temples, in the area, but I feel that that added to it’s character. We enjoyed exploring the temple and learning more about the history of Japan.
