Travel to Kamakura, the capital of Japan's first shogunate, on this half-day tour. En route, you'll drive down Wakamiya-Oji, the city's famous mile-and-a-half-long avenue lined with cherry trees, azaleas, restaurants and shops. Your first stop is the 750-year-old Great Buddha at Kotokuin Temple. Cast by order of Minamoto Yoritomo, the founder of the Kamakura shogunate, you'll be awestruck at this 38-feet-high bronze statue. Next, you'll continue to Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, a shrine dedicated to Hachiman, the patron god of the Minamoto family and of the samurai in general. Originally built in 1063 in Zaimokuza, once home to Japan's oldest harbor, it was moved to its present location by Minamoto no Yoritomo. In 1191, he built its main pavilion to celebrate the establishment of the Minamoto Shogunate. Your last stop is Komachi-Dori Street, where you'll have free time to browse through its traditional and modern shops and boutiques.
