Hydrangea at Engakuji Temple Outline
The hydrangea is so symbolic of Kamakura that it is often referred to as “the hydrangea of Kamakura! Hydrangeas are so symbolic of Kamakura that it is often said” Kamakura is all about hydrangeas! About 200 hydrangeas of various colors are in full bloom in the spacious precincts of Engakuji Temple. Every time you walk along the moss-covered stone steps and corridors, you will be transported to another world. The petals of the flowers shining in the soft morning light and the sound of the leaves rustling in the wind…enjoy a “mature stroll” with all your senses.

- Excellent accessibility, only a 3-minute walk from Kitakamakura Station!
- The grounds are large, so it often doesn’t get as crowded as waiting to enter.
- The contrast between the hydrangea and the gate, which was built in the Kamakura period, is artistic!
