Kamakura/Enoshima(School trip)


Enoshima a small local resort island off the coast of the Fujisawa, is a great place to get away for the day. Complete with delicious ice cream, local seafood specialties and an arraignment of temples of shrines, it makes a fun experience. It is also very popular for young couples. They sometimes bring lockets and write each other love notes on them and lock it to a fence. The island was also home to Samuel Cocking a British merchant. Samuel built a botanical garden featuring man European and tropical plants.

Walking past the hoop(Shrine for Benten-Goddess of Enoshima) a wish is granted when you walk through a wish is granted. Also washing your coins here may bring you wealth.
