An hour's train right from Tokyo is Kamakura. It has several temples and shrines to walk around and has a similar atmostphere to Kyoto but on a smaller scale. The notable exception is this Great Buddha shrine.
After a day's walking round the sights Kamakura has to offer, I can recommend a bite to eat and a cheeky drink or too in Daisy's Cafe - a beach-front establishment with friendly people and on occasion live music.
Nice photos bob. Any of the art gallery by any chance?
How did you manage to end up on Daisy's web page?
Well since all 7 people that were in the bar, including the two artists, are also on the web page it wasn't that special to be photographed and put up on as well! The owner was updating it live from his camera phone which was pretty cool.
Judging by the impressive sculpture I get the impression I missed somethinbg by not heading to Kamakura. Maybe next time?
