Hasedera Temple, often referred to as "Hase Kannon," is known as one of the most scenic spots in Kamakura. The principal deity is the statue of Kannon, the Goddess of Mercy, with 11 faces. Standing at 9.18 meters high, it is one of the largest wooden Buddha statues in Japan.
The flowers in the grounds of Hasedera Temple are beautiful in every season, especially the hydrangeas that bloom in June are so magnificent they are considered a highlight. The autumn leaves are also beautiful, and visitors can enjoy them illuminated at night.
Inside the temple grounds, you can meet the charming Jizo statue known for its lovely expression, and from the observatory, you can enjoy panoramic views of the sea, cityscape, and various temple buildings of Kamakura.
