When i was living in Tokyo, Kamakura was the best choice to escape from the crowded city. Quiet streets, traditional houses, temples and shrines, its good for people who want to experience traditional Japanese atmosphere, and its just an hour by train from tokyo. I'm not going to the city recently, so I gonna upload some old pictures for now.
