    During Japan's Golden Week period, in Kamakura, there are occasions where transferring from the Yokosuka Line to the Enoden Line may take up to an hour. This year, it's recommended to walk to areas like Hase and the Daibutsu, which would take around 25 to 30 minutes from Kamakura Station, where route guidance is provided. At Enoshima, to alleviate congestion in front of the escalators, advance tickets are sold at Katase Enoshima Station and around Benten Bridge. Additionally, gates that can be passed through with barcode-enabled online tickets have been installed. At each Enoden station, you can pay for your ride using touchless credit card payments, and using the all-day pass type of online ticket is also convenient.

    Awwww thank you so much for your encouraging words and for watching our videos! ❤️ these places aren’t exactly underrated but lesser known compared to the trifecta-Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto! Don’t get me wrong, I love the trifecta, but there’s so much to see in Japan! ☺️ OH WOW! So excited for you to come to Japan! Do you have an idea where you want to go??

    Hi Hana, what a beautiful little island that has so much to do there. And, as always, the food scene looks sooo good - very tasty! I for one do enjoy your day trip videos so would be more than happy to see you make more. Thank you for the video _(and to your cameraman for capturing it all)._

    Hi, Quaker! ☺️ it is really a beautiful little island! I love the vibe of the whole island…so much history too! I absolutely loved the food! If I could have ordered 2 of everything, that’s what I would have done! Haha thank you so much for answering my question too! We will keep making these day trip videos! I enjoy them so much because I too learn so much and really enjoy showing you how beautiful Japan is! ❤️ I will tell him thank you from you haha though I know he’s always reading the comments. 🤣

    Hey Hana, I recently commented on your Yokohama and Kamakura videos thanking you for these day trip suggestions and I was happy to include those in my itinerary. But now, I ran into this video and I don't have enough time in Tokyo to include this 😭😭 I don't know, maybe I will try to squeeze it in...Fantastic suggestion again and thanks again 🙂

    Hi Sea Salt Lemon! Thank you so much for watching all the day trips from Tokyo videos! 🙏🏼 I appreciate you! Hmmm…if you go to Kamakura, you can definitely have a sneak peak of Enoshima so maybe you can squeeze it in! But if you can’t, Enoshima will be waiting for you! ❤️

    Do you think it’s possible to do Kamakura and Enoshima in 1 day if you stay the night in Kamakura?

    Hello! It will depend on how many places you want to see in both areas and how fast you go through those places. :) if you breeze through the different spots, then I think it’s possible, but if you don’t want to feel rushed, one area per day is best.
