Publisher's Summary

Kamakura in Kanagawa Prefecture is a popular tourist destination where you can feel the charm of the ancient city while being close to the center of Tokyo. 神奈川県の鎌倉は、都心から近いながらも、古都の趣を感じられる人気の観光地です。
12世紀後半に源頼朝が幕府を開いた鎌倉は、日本が貴族社会から武家社会に変わるきっかけとなった重要な場所。京都や奈良と並んで、日本の歴史を語るには欠かせません。
鎌倉には「鎌倉の大仏」で有名な高徳院や長谷寺、鶴岡八幡宮など、由緒ある寺社が多く点在します。
一帯の沿岸地域は湘南と呼ばれ、江ノ電が走る海岸沿いは、日本有数のマリンスポーツのメッカでもあります。
歴史と自然に彩られた鎌倉には、明治時代以降、多くの文学者や芸術家などが住み着きました。現在でも、いつかは鎌倉で過ごしたいと考える人は多いようです。
