[2025 Kamakura Attraction] Travel Guide for Dankazura (Updated Apr)

In Kamakura you will obviously visit a shrine, Tsurugaoka Hachimangu. Getting there can be by different roads but the best one is walking along Dankazura because it’s decorated with cherry trees from both its sides and leads directly to the main entrance of the shrine. In the evening the walkway is illuminated 😍 📅 When to see in bloom: end of March-April depending on cherry blossom forecast #springwander

In Dankazura, Kamakura City, Japan, I enjoyed a leisurely and culturally rich journey. Dankazura is an important road leading to Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, lined with cherry blossom trees, offering a charming view. I took ten photos to capture this wonderful experience. The history of Dankazura dates back to the Kamakura period, where it served as an important ceremonial path. Today, it has become a favorite walking spot for tourists and locals alike. Walking on this ancient road, I felt the weight of history and the beauty of nature. In spring, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, Dankazura turns into a pink floral path, drawing countless visitors for flower viewing. Even in other seasons, the scenery remains enchanting, with shady green trees and picturesque landscapes. I captured the beauty under the cherry trees, the ancient stone lanterns, and the distant Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, these photos perfectly capturing the charm of Dankazura. Beyond the natural scenery, there are many historical buildings and cultural sites along Dankazura, each filled with stories and historical significance. This stroll through Dankazura not only allowed me to experience the natural beauty of Kamakura but also made me feel the deep historical and cultural heritage of the place. I will forever cherish these beautiful memories and look forward to returning to Dankazura in the future to enjoy more of its beautiful landscapes.
