・Hasedera is a temple of the Jodo sect, famous for its eleven-headed statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy. The 9.18 meter tall, gilded wooden statue is regarded as one of the largest wooden sculpture in Japan and can be viewed in the temple's main building, the Kannon-do Hall. According to legend, it was carved from the same tree as the similarly tall Kannon statue worshiped at the Hasedera Temple in Nara Prefecture. ・位於鎌倉大佛附近的「長谷寺」。佛像安置於正殿內的高台上，附近的觀景台視野極佳，可將海景與鎌倉街景盡收眼底、一覽無遺。寺院內夏季有繡球花、秋天有紅葉，四時不同的自然美景也非常值得欣賞。
