The Japanese-style streets are one of the most nostalgic sceneries in Japan. Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine here is the core building of such an area and is a shrine that you should visit. It is very large in scale and outstanding in its power. It is the headquarters of the Minamoto clan, which founded the Kamakura shogunate, and is a sacred place for history buffs.

As I mentioned earlier, words such as "Kamakura Shogunate" and "Minamoto no Yoritomo" are probably familiar even to those who are not so familiar with history. Minamoto no Yoritomo, the founder of the Kamakura shogunate, was a great general and one of the most admired warriors because of his heroic appearance and behavior.
