[Kanagawa Prefecture] Kamakura Shrine preserves the heroic figure of Prince Morinaga

Kamakura, one of Kanagawa Prefecture's leading tourist destinations ⛩ I went to Kamakura Shrine, a little away from the city center, for my first visit of the year 🚶‍♂️ The shrine enshrines Prince Morinaga, the son of Emperor Godaigo and a key figure in the overthrow of the Kamakura Shogunate. There are many historical sites within the shrine grounds that tell the story of the shrine's history 😌 Because it was early in the new year, the shrine was crowded with many people, but what surprised me the most was the overflowing display of Kamakura Shrine's representative amulets, the "lion head amulets" 😳 The sheer number and power of the amulets was a real hit with my camera 📸 I was also greeted by many animals, and it looked like I was going to have a good New Year 😌 ------------------------------------------------- [Access] 🚃: Get off at JR Yokosuka Line "Kamakura Station", 20 minutes walk 🚌: Depart from Kamakura Station 10 minutes by Keihin Kyuko Bus bound for Kamakuramiya [Visiting hours] 🕰: Visiting course 9:00-16:30 *The journey takes about 30 minutes *Open all year round *On days when Kamakura Takigi Noh is held, the course closes at 14:00 [Price] 💰: Visiting course 300 yen ------------------------------------------------- #Kamakura #Kamakura sightseeing #Kamakura trip #first shrine visit of the year #2023 #visit to the shrine #year of the rabbit #camera trip #SLR #canoneosskissx9i #Kamakura Shrine #Prince Morinaga #Kamakura Shogunate #I love traveling #I love history #I love nature #travel record #cutout world #traveling in Japan #japantravel #where should I go next?
