This article is from the official account Feekr Travel, ID: feekr_trip. Original title: Traveling to the summer in the Japanese manga! The sea water is not inferior to Okinawa, and the hot springs are comparable to Kyoto, these small towns are amazing!
Speaking of Kamakura, everyone immediately thinks of Slam Dunk, a small seaside city that does hide the youth of too many people.
@图虫创意
When it comes to Izu, everyone's thoughts drift to a further era. Japan's national treasure writer Yasunari Kawabata's famous book "The Dancing Girl of Izu" is widely known, and in the movie, Tomo Miura and Momoe Yamaguchi were the golden CPs of their parents' generation.
@图虫创意
But outside of film and television dramas, these are actually 2 super treasure towns.
@unspash
Snow-covered Mt. Fuji, Rukawa Kaede, which is all the rage on the Shonan coast, and the Eno-Tram that recurs in anime... Kamakura seems to be intertwined with all the good, and every frame is a freeze frame of romance and youth.
@图虫创意+Feekr partners
In addition, Kamakura is a small town with a zen feel. As the political center of the 12th century, Kamakura flourished Buddhism, and the famous Kamakura Buddha was born, which has been meditating quietly for thousands of years.
@图虫创意
Izu is a long-established summer resort in the minds of countless Japan. Aoyama, Coast, Hot Springs...... From the moment the train enters Shizuoka Prefecture, it seems that most of life's troubles are gone.
@图虫创意
It is also a small town with a view of Mt. Fuji. Looking at the beautiful scenery of Japan's national treasure against the turquoise water, I suddenly felt healed both physically and mentally.
@Feekr collaborators
It is such a 2 summer fairy check-in place, not only to take everyone to check in the most worthwhile mountain and sea scenery, but also to wear a Japanese-style yukata to a City Walk, and instantly travel to the beautiful summer vacation in the Japanese comics~
@Feekr collaborators
If you're lucky, you can also hit a fireworks festival in Japan, and at the moment when the fireworks bloom, you can lick sugar apples in a yukata, and it turns out that summer in Japan is so relaxing and refreshing.
@Feekr collaborators
It's time to go!
The sea water × youthful× zen × fireworks
Kamakura, one of Japan's most treasured towns
Kamakura Shonan Coast
@图虫创意
The Shonan coast is the only way for Rukawa Kaede to go to school in "Slam Dunk", and it is also the filming location of many seaside scenes in Japan's film and television dramas, and it is one of the most beautiful coastlines in Japan.
@unspash
The sand here is black, and as the sun sets, you can sit on the embankment by the sea, with the bright and cheerful sound of the waves in your ears and the overlapping blue as far as the eye can see.
@unspash
@图虫创意
You can check out the famous Kamakura Kokumatae Station. The scenery between the pitches is exactly the same as the filming location of "Slam Dunk" created by Yuhiko Inoue. The intersection where Sakuragi Hanamichi and Haruko beckon, perhaps also a place where many people want to say they love you out loud.

Not far from the train is the real Kamakura High School, which is the prototype of Xiangbei in "Slam Dunk". Not far away, Qilibin also has a super beautiful sunset.
Komachi-dori, Kamakura

Meigetsu-in
@Feekr collaborators
Meigetsu-in Temple is a small temple in the mountains of Kamakura City, which belongs to the Kenchoji sect of the Rinzai sect. It was built by Hojo Tokimune, the eighth regent of the Kamakura shogunate, and was originally part of Zenkoji Temple, and it is the only Zenkoji temple building that was not destroyed during the campaign to abolish Buddhism in the first year of the Meiji era.
@图虫创意
Myeonggetsu Temple is also known as the Hydrangea Temple because of the many hydrangeas planted in the precincts, and when the flowers bloom in June and July, it becomes the world of hydrangeas, especially the hydrangeas on both sides of the approach, which warmly welcome visitors from all over the world like a flower wall.
@Feekr collaborators
The temple has a history of 700 years, and the Japanese man-made landscape in the temple, the dense bamboo forest, and the blooming flowers accompany the ancient buildings, and it is a good place to get rid of the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy the quiet.
Hokokuji Temple

@Feekr collaborators
The bamboo forest in the temple is relatively well-known, and most tourists come here to visit the bamboo forest behind the main hall. Therefore, Baoguo Temple is also known as Bamboo Temple, and the whole temple is very quiet with few tourists.
Kamakura Buddha
@图虫创意
The Great Buddha of Kamakura, one of the three major Buddha statues in Japan, is located in Kotoku-in. Once upon a time, it was also the same fate as Kamakura, and it suffered many disasters. Since its construction in 1238, the Buddha Hall has been rebuilt again and again after many typhoons and fires.
@图虫创意
Unlike other Buddha statues, the Kamakura Great Buddha is 11.5 meters tall and has a hollow interior that can be accessed from the bottom of the back of the statue.
The interior of the Buddha statue also clearly has traces of many repairs, so it is no wonder that Japan writers write sentences such as "fire does not destroy, rain does not die" to praise it.
Kamakura Prince Hotel
Kamakura Prince Hotel
@Feekr collaborators
There are not many luxury hotels in Kamakura, so many people can only stay in Tokyo when they come to check in, and no matter how tired they are, they can only return by train.
@Feekr collaborators
The hotel is located in the Shonan area, close to the famous Shichirihama Coast in Sagami Bay, and is basically a local top hotel. The facilities and services are very online, and you can walk out in the evening to check in the same coastline as Liuchuan Feng, which is comfortable and leisurely.
The green mountains are verdant, and the islands are pure
The charm of Izu is more than just hot springs

There is also a popular Internet celebrity check-in point of Japan INS - COEDA HOUSE, and the entire café is designed by Kengo Kuma, the great god of Japanese design, walking into it seems to have crossed into a refreshing and clean but beautiful Japanese magazine, the wind blows through the pages of the book and blows through the ends of your hair, and the troubles are also taken away~

Mt. Omuro

In the center of the summit is a 30-meter-deep crater, and when you look at Mt. Omuro from above, the whole mountain is close to a symmetrical and perfect cone, and inside the summit is a huge crater crater, like a graceful line, like an inverted bowl.
Izunokuni Panorama Park
@Feekr collaborators
Izunokuni Panorama Park Japan is a natural area of natural beauty with a long view of the mountains and a magnificent coastline, combining the beauty of natural mountains and seaside scenery. On a clear day, Mt. Fuji in the distance is so beautiful that any ukiyo-e would be overshadowed.

In summer, the park is also fresh and pleasant. The winding trail weaves through the lush forest, and the cool breeze on your cheeks is a delight. Enjoying the warm and soft scenery of the lake and mountains, you will feel like you are in a paradise.
Kinosaki Kaigan & Kadowaki suspension bridge
@Feekr collaborators
The Kinosaki Coast is located on a typical deep coastline, and the steep faults are the Riya-style coast formed by the cooling of the lava that flowed out of the volcanic eruptions of Mt. Amagi and Mt. Omuro. A lush primeval forest plateau beside the coastline, with a rugged reef and surging waves crashing on the shore.
@Feekr collaborators
The 23-meter-high and 48-meter-long Kadowaki Suspension Bridge is a famous sight in Ito, and when you stand on the slightly trembling suspension bridge, you can see the cliffs and the rolling water at your feet, which is very thrilling and spectacular.
