Latest Fujisawa hotel reviews
salisbury3933 Says: The Sea Candle is an observation tower up on the hill on Enoshima. It gives a panoramic view of the overall area. 300 yen entry.
salisbury3933 Says: I was sorely tempted to place this in the tourist traps section, as I don't believe the aquarium is good enough to justify the 2000 yen entry price.That said, it is interesting enough, and it does showcase the diversity of Sagami bay.The exhibits themselves are generally...
ChuckG Says: Enoshima island has an amusement park, botanical garden and observation tower which was renovated recently.The island used to be part of the main island but erosion separated it !
ChuckG Says: To go to the top of the island, you have to follow a curvy street lined up with stores and restaurants. You won't regret the walk, it's wonderful once on top !
ChuckG Says: There are many interesting buddhist temples on the Enoshima mountain, really worth visiting.
ChuckG Says: You can now take elevator on top of the tower. The view from the top is magnificent. See my travelogue for more pictures.
sunshine_01 Says: If you are in Kamakura then you may want to visit Enoshima Island for a half day trip. Or you may want to visit Enoshima Island for a full day trip.Taking the tram(Enoden line) to Enoshima station is an experience itself. The tram passed through a very narrow street which...
maverick-mw Says: A good place to combine with a trip to Kamakura, Enoshima island is a very nice, if tourist-packed place to visit. Avoid coming here during pea season, as the paths through the temples etc are very narrow at times.I would also recommend that you spend longer here, as there...
Kinokuniya Ryokan: Good value lunch set
salisbury3933 Says: Attached to the ryokan is a restaurant which specialises in lunch sets.I had the following for 1000 yen. Very good value indeed. Recommended.
salisbury3933 Says: This was just around the corner from the hotel and was well recommended on Japanese language travel websites, so we gave it a try.It specialises in seafood, in particular crayfish (ise-ebi) and whitebait (shirasu). I thought it was reasonably good value, and the food itself...
Local food: Good restaurants along the river
ChuckG Says: To get good restaurants, try the ones along the river shown on the picture. They are lined up along the street. Fish !
Diverse Deafood places: Seafood on Enoshima island
ChuckG Says: There is tons of great fresh seafood resturants on Enoshima island. I tried one and was very satisfied. Check out hte picture below...hhhaaaaa
salisbury3933 Says: Enoshima is actually pretty well covered as well as train lines go.The Odakyu Enoshima line is one way, and it can be reached by the main Odakyu line by transferring at Sagamiono station.The Shonan monorail connects Enoshima with Ofuna in Kamakura city, where there is a JR...
salisbury3933 Says: I always try out the local craft beer when I get out of Tokyo.Enoshima beer is pretty good actually and worth the 600 yen I spent.Most restaurants and most of the souvenir shops stock it.Recommended.
Along the street going up the mountain: Maneki Neko !!!
ChuckG Says: I've rarely seen so many kinds...so i bought a Neko-love and a Neko-luck... Lots of Maneki Neko in all size !
Souvenir shops: Tacky Miami style souvenirs
ChuckG Says: Seems like every city along a beach has to sell those tacky blue souvenirs.The only one i like onthe picture is the glass maneki Neko ! I would pass on this if i were you...
ChuckG Says: There are actually people living on this island ! Get off the main street going up the mountain to walk in the alleys that line the mountain. You will discover the backside of the tourist Enoshima and won't be dissapointed !
ChuckG Says: Fujisawa is a great place for surfing, plenty of waves for the addicts, long long beach and great temperature !
salisbury3933 Says: This was outside one of the temples on Enoshima. We didn't investigate further, but it made for an interesting set of pictures!
A temple, no it's a train station
salisbury3933 Says: As I didn't arrive on the Odakyu train, when I saw this from afar, I merely assumed it was a temple.Upon closer inspection it happened to be Katase Enoshima station.
