Hasedera Temple in Kamakura is widely known as a prime spot for hydrangeas. During the rainy season, approximately 2,500 hydrangea plants bloom magnificently across the slopes of the temple grounds, captivating visitors with their beautiful gradations. Particularly, the view of Yuigahama Beach seen through the hydrangeas offers a breathtaking panorama unique to Hasedera.Visiting during this time allows you to experience the rain-drenched hydrangeas standing out even more vividly in the quiet surroundings, making it an ideal time for photography. Capture a memorable photo at Hasedera Temple, blending the charm of Kamakura with the beauty of the hydrangeas. The temple gets extremely crowded during the hydrangea season. We recommend visiting first thing in the morning. Also, during the same period, you can likely see many hydrangeas at nearby temples as well. When touring Kamakura, it's a good idea to plan your route in advance.
