Tsurugaoka Hachimangu in Kamakura is so beautiful

The Tsurugaoka Hachimangu, close to Komachi Street, is the family temple of the Genji clan who founded the ancient city of Kamakura. It's the center of the entire city, like a big park with mountains, water, ponds, and lotus flowers, very beautiful. On the right side, there is a small shrine with many pigeons. At noon, when school is out, the surrounding elementary and middle school students come with their lunch boxes to feed the pigeons. You have to climb the stairs to reach the main hall, where many young people gather, and after work, some office workers also come to pay their respects. On the right side of the stairs, there is a large rest hall with food, drinks, and restrooms, but apart from that, there are almost no places to sit.

Tsurugaoka Hachimangu

Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gu is a breathtaking site to behold during Sakura blossom season. With over 1,000 sakura trees, the shrine is transformed into a sea of white flowers from late March to early April. The blooming sakura trees serve as a beautiful backdrop to the many traditional buildings and structures in the shrine complex, creating a stunning contrast between the natural beauty of the sakura and the historical architecture of the shrine. Visitors can enjoy strolling through the various paths and trails within the shrine complex, taking in the incredible sight of the flower petals fluttering down like snowflakes. The raised platform in front of the main hall is especially popular for sakura viewing, as it offers a panoramic view of the shrine and the surrounding area, all of which are covered in beautiful pink cherry petals. In the evening, the cherry blossom trees are lit up with lanterns, creating a magical and romantic atmosphere. Overall, the Sakura blossom season at Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gu is a must-see for anyone visiting Kamakura. 櫻花盛開的季節,鶴岡八幡宮是一個令人嘆為觀止的景點。 今年3月下旬已經有5成花開比住年早了點,擁有 1,000 多棵櫻花樹的神社化身為粉紅色和白色的花海。 盛開的櫻花樹作為神社建築群中許多傳統建築的美麗背景,在櫻花的自然美景與神社的歷史建築之間形成了驚人的對比。 遊客可以漫步在神社內的各種小徑上,欣賞花瓣像雪花一樣飄落的令人難以置信的景象。 正殿前的高台是觀賞櫻花的熱門場所,因為它提供了神社和周邊地區的全景,所有這些都覆蓋著美麗的粉紅色櫻花花瓣。 傍晚,櫻花樹上張燈結彩,營造出神奇浪漫的氛圍。 鶴岡八幡宮的櫻花季是任何來鎌倉的人必看的地方。
