Holidays to popular places can mean crowds. Kamakura can be one of those places which has so many tourists- anime films and manga stories have brought the crowds, but it’s also real easy to find quiet places which often are just a street away.

Additionally the back streets are quiet and you can find more interesting places that everyone isn’t visiting.

While there are times for the ‘sites’ it’s always important to go off route to explore and find back street gems. As always many thanks for Kym for fabulous searching skills as we experienced a delightful coffee shop where we purchased coffee beans to take home.
