Tsugaoka Hachiman Shrine
Tsurugaoka Hachiman shrine was built by an ancestor of the Minamoto clan to enshrine the family deity, who later became the guardian deity of Kamakura Shogunate and its warriors.
Kotoku-in temple
The Great Buddha of Kamakura is a bronze statue of Amida Buddha, which stands on the grounds of Kotoku-in Temple.
The Great Buddha of Kotoku-in Temple has been designated a National Treasure.
Hase temple
This temple is called “the temple of flowers” because it is full of flowers all year around, wisteria, peony and azalea and called “the pure land in Kamakura”. The temple boasts a wealth of other sights related to Buddhism as well: a statue of Amida Buddha, Daikokuten, an image believed to help with success in life; a garden full of Jizo statues; and a cave containing images of goddess Benten and her disciples. No wonder that Hase-dera is said to be like a department store of Buddhism.

“Tokyo Day two”
Nao, Was an absolute gentleman, was the oldest guide we used in Japan but such a wealth of knowledge and as I said such a gentleman. Definitely knew his way around but at the same time negotiated the most efficient way to travel without the traditional crowds you would expect in Tokyo. We definitely regret not being able to say a proper goodby to Nao San due to having to catch our next train to Kanazawa.

(19 reviews)Dear Algirdas san Thank you for your comment about my tour. I enjoyed travelling with your group very much and realized what a nice country Lithuania is. If I have a chance to visit Europe in the future, I want to include Lithuania on the list of "must visit" list. Please give my best regards to all members of your group and thank them for cooperating with me to conduct the tour smoothly. Nao
“Highly recommend Nao as a guide”
We booked Nao to see the highlights of Tokyo and we’re so pleased we did. From our first communication with Nao, he was punctual in his responses and clearly set out what we would be doing on the day. He is very personable, knowledgeable about his city and considerate of his clients needs. We enjoyed spending the day with him.
