1. First, enjoy the view from inside the station
When you arrive at Kamakura Kokomae Station, you will be greeted with a sweeping ocean view. This view alone is worth seeing. You can also see Enoshima, a famous tourist destination in the Kamakura area.
The retro station sign inside the station also catches your eye.
2. Level crossing
And finally, we headed to the sacred place of the railroad crossing. This is the very railroad crossing shown in the opening scene of the anime ``SLUM DANK.'' The harmonious contrast between the blue sky and sea, the yellow of the railroad crossing, and the green of the Enoden train is a view that can only be seen here. It is dangerous, so please never enter the railroad crossing when taking photos, and please enjoy taking pictures while observing good manners.
3. To Shichirigahama
Beyond the railroad crossing, let's walk along Shichirigahama Beach, which stretches out in front of you. The name "Shichirigahama" is said to come from the fact that the unit of land was approximately 7 ri (approximately 4.2 km) in the Kamakura period. (actually about 3km)
This area is relatively less crowded, so it is recommended for those who want to enjoy the sea view and the sound of the waves without the crowds.
In the evening, when the sea surface turns purple, a fantastical world unfolds. When the weather is nice, you can even see Mt. Fuji from the beach. Why not enjoy the changing colors as they change little by little with the sun?
