🧘‍♂️A moment of peace and tranquility at the "Kamakura Buddha"

🧘♂️A moment to calm your mind at the "Kamakura Great Buddha", where silence and history breathe The symbol of Kamakura, the "Kamakura Great Buddha", is a seated statue of Amida Nyorai, about 11.3 meters tall, enshrined at Kotoku-in Temple. The author visited on a sunny spring day, and in front of the Great Buddha's calm expression, my mind naturally calmed. By visiting the inside of the statue (50 yen), you can see the internal structure of the bronze up close and feel the weight of history on your skin. There are also Hasedera Temple and Yuigahama in the surrounding area, making it a great place for a stroll. You can calm your mind on a solo trip, or immerse yourself in the romance of history with your partner. The right place to start your trip to Kamakura is the Great Buddha. 🚃Access: About 10 minutes on foot from Enoshima Electric Railway "Hase Station". 🚗By car: About 30 minutes via Prefectural Route 32 from the "Asahina IC" on the Yokohama-Yokosuka Road. Paid parking is available nearby [1]. #domestictravel #coupletravel #solotravel #absolutelyfreetravel #KamakuraGreatBuddha #Kotokuin #historicaltravel #timetocalmthemind
