π Lazy Traveler's Guide to Kamakura: A One-Day Itinerary π
π₯Ί I used to think Kamakura was just an internet-famous spot, but those who have been know that Kamakura is truly worth a visit. π₯° Kamakura isn't that big, but without a plan, you might spend a lot of unnecessary money π° and walk many unnecessary miles. Today, I've put together this super detailed, non- Kamakura one-day travel guide to help you save money and effort. π For first-timers in Kamakura, you can follow this route~ Those who come across this, hurry up and save it! π Tokyo Round-Trip Transportation: About 1 hour journey π Kamakura Station: β From Shinjuku Station, Ikebukuro Station, Shibuya Station: Take the JR Shonan-Shinjuku Line β From Tokyo Station, Shinagawa Station: Take the JR Yokosuka Line β From Haneda Airport: Direct bus π Fujisawa Station: β From Ikebukuro Station, Shibuya Station: Take the JR Shonan-Shinjuku Line β From Tokyo Station, Shinagawa Station: Take the JR Tokaido Line β From Shinjuku Station: β JR Shonan-Shinjuku Line β‘ Odakyu Line Comparing Odakyu Railway with Other Routes π₯° Pros: Cost-effective. The [Odakyu Line + Enoshima Electric Railway One-Day Ticket] unlimited ride package only costs 1640 yen, while other routes to Kamakura + Enoshima Electric Railway One-Day Ticket (800 yen) would cost about 50 RMB more. π Cons: The Odakyu Line starts from Shinjuku Station and only goes to Fujisawa Station, not Kamakura Station. The whole journey will be a bit longer. π Most online recommendations suggest taking the Odakyu Line, but if you're not near Shinjuku, you can choose other transportation routes. π The Enoshima Electric Railway (Enoden) can be used with Suica cards, but a one-day pass will save you more money. π Yokohama β Kamakura Transportation β To Kamakura Station: β JR Yokosuka Line β‘ JR Yokosuka Line β To Fujisawa Station: β JR Tokaido Line β‘ JR Shonan-Shinjuku Line π Kamakura One-Day Itinerary Kamakura Station β© Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine β© Komachi Street β© Kamakura Great Buddha β© Shichirigahama Beach β© Kamakura High School Front β© Enoshima β© Shonan Coast β© Return from Fujisawa Station π Must-Visit Spots in Kamakura Kamakura High School Front: The iconic scene from Slam Dunk, a beacon of youth for many in the 80s and 90s.
