Kamakura Getting there & around

Getting around

You can walk to most temples and shrines from Kamakura or Kita-Kamakura station. Sites in the west, like the Daibutsu, can be reached via the Enoden Enoshima line from Kamakura station to Hase (¥190) or bus from Kamakura station stops 1 to 6. Bus trips around the area cost either ¥170 or ¥190. Another good option is renting a bicycle; Rental Cycles (24-2319; per hr/day ¥500/1500 Mon-Fri, ¥550/1600 Sat & Sun; 8.30am-5pm) is outside the east exit of Kamakura station, and right up the incline.
