Hase-dera is a peaceful temple in Kamakura known for its beautiful gardens and calm atmosphere. It’s famous for the tall statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy, which many people visit for blessings and comfort.
The temple sits on a hillside, so you get a nice view of Kamakura and the ocean. The paths are lined with flowers, small statues, and quiet spots where you can rest. There’s also a cave with small carved statues inside, which adds to the temple’s charm.
It’s a place where people go to relax, pray, or simply enjoy the scenery. Simple, calming, and very beautiful.
