Kamakura city is known for it’s great Buda in Japan and that’s pretty much it.
Many Japanese visit there for sightseeing. We hear about Kamakura but, we don’t really know what’s in Kamakura other than the great Buda. I think everyone goes to Kamakura because it’s famous, but they don’t know much about Kamakura.
It is a good place to go on a side trip from Tokyo.
Here are some links in English written about Kamakura.
I’ve been searching Japanese websites that has English pages and maps in English.
But there are very few resources compared to Tokyo and Kyoto.
