[Kanagawa Prefecture] Kamakura sightseeing: Must-see "Kotoku-in Temple and the Great Buddha of Kamakura"

\\The Great Buddha of Kamakura, a must-see when visiting Kamakura// The official name is "Amitabha Nyorai Seated Statue" and it is the principal image of Kotoku-in Temple. It is such a famous tourist spot that when you think of Kamakura, you think of the "Kamakura Great Buddha". From Hase Station on the Enoshima Electric Railway, walk up a gentle slope for about 7 minutes. On the way to Kotoku-in Temple, there were many temptations such as restaurants and souvenir shops. It is considered one of the three great Buddha statues in Japan. I was very impressed by its impressive appearance.
