Tours
The essence of Kamakura - A half-day trip to another world
From Tokyo, only one hour train ride takes you to another world, Kamakura, an ancient capital of samurais.Their spirit of "Zen" still remains anywhere. The passage of time is quite different from the one of megapolis Tokyo. I think three spots express the essence of Kamakura, Great Buddha (Kotoku-in Temple), Bamboo Temple (Hokoku-ji Temple) and First Shogun's Shrine (Tsuru-ga-oka Hachiman Guu).
Promenade--from Tokyo Station to the Imperial Palace
Without any doubt, this is one of the most beautiful promenades in Japan, and also, especially historical road. At first sight, it doesn't look a lot of historical signs concealed. I'll tell you such secrets of this promenade taking a stroll on this road. There's no splendid palace like Versailles, but we can find remains of "Castle" in many places. That's the secret of this road because It's the scene of Japanese revolution, a dramatic and irreversible social change llike French revolution.
Enjoy the labyrinth of Asakusa in Tokyo on a Half-Day
Without any doubt, Asakusa is the most popular destination in Tokyo. Its unchangeable atmosphere, "Good old times", attracts many visitors every day. It was once the heart of Edo (Tokyo's ancient name) City, home to artisans, merchants and entertainers. As well as its oldest temple in Tokyo, Senso-ji and its great red lantern, its small lanes and winding alleyways are full of wonder. It's like a labyrinth. let's explore the labyrinth with me!
La promenade - de la gare de Tokyo au Palais Impérial
Sans aucun doute, c'est l'une des plus belles promenades du Japon, et aussi, en particulier la route historique. À première vue, elle ne semble pas caché beaucoup de signes historiques. Je vais vous dire de tels secrets de cette promenade se promenant. Il n'y a pas de splendide palais comme Versailles, mais nous pouvons trouver des restes de "château" dans de nombreux points. C'est le secret de cette route parce que c'est la scène de la révolution japonaise comme la la révolution française.
Kamakura-une demi journée dans le monde enchanté !
Il y a 800 ans, la ville de Kamakura était la capitale du Japon sous le gouvernement de samourai. En train, de Tokyo, par exemple Shinjuku, il faut environ une heure. Il y reste encore l'esprit du "Zen" partout. Je crois que trois endroits expriment l'essence de Kamakura, le Grand Bouddha (Kotoku-in ), le Temple de Bambou (Hokoku-ji) et le sanctuaire du Premier Shogun (Tsuru-ga-oka Hachiman Guu).
Tokyo Pilgrimage of Seven Gods of good luck in Yamanote
Do you know a pilgrimage of Seven gods of good luck ? In Tokyo, there're many kinds of this pilgrimage. But it's said that this is the oldest since the 18th Century. And at each temple, you can get a Daruma figure (cute !) and Goshuin card (elegant calligraphy !) if you like. After this pilgrimage, it's belived that you can get a great luck !! And you'll enjoy walking around beautiful Yamanote town !

The essence of Kamakura - A half-day trip to another world
“Kamakura April 2023”
We visited Kamakura with Itsumi and saw 3 major shrine/temple areas in a short period of time. She was very knowledgeable, she tailored the tour to meet our interests, she was kind enough to make some last minute changes we requested, went as fast or slow as we wanted, and was very pleasant. I highly recommend!
