People with taller stature need to lower themselves slightly when walking because it is dark inside the cave and some of the paths are lower. From the Miharadai, you can see the scenery of Sagami Bay, Kamakura city, and the Shonan coastline. There is also a small shop nearby that sells snacks and drinks.
