GENERAL TIPS

Language Learn a lile Japanese - English is taught and spoken widely (and is geng a bit of a push pre-2020 Tokyo Olympics), but it’s helpful to learn a bit of Japanese before you travel. I really lack conﬁdence with languages, but you’ll be amazed how far you can get with ‘arigato gozaimasu’ (thank you very much) and a smile in Japan. Some light reading on general etiquette is a must too, particularly if you’re visiting temples.

Transportation Here you can buy your JR Pass: www.jrailpass.com

Most of Kamakura’s main sites are located around the train staons of Kamakura, Kita-Kamakura, and Hase. Use buses and taxis to get to the more remote temples. For those with extra energy or want to get oﬀ of the beaten path, hiking trails connect the more popular temples.
