Where to start

Most pages here name the nearest station rather than a checked route: Kamakura on the Yokosuka Line for Tsurugaoka Hachimangu, Kita-Kamakura for Engaku-ji and Kenchō-ji, Hase for Kotoku-in Great Buddha; Motomachi-Chūkagai for Yokohama Chinatown, Minatomirai for Minato Mirai, Sakuragichō for Yokohama Landmark Tower and Nihon-ōdōri for Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse; Chōkoku-no-Mori for Hakone Open-Air Museum; Yokosuka-Chūō for Mikasa Park; Katase-Enoshima on the Odakyū Enoshima Line for Enoshima Aquarium; and Odawara for Odawara Castle. The one checked route, to Lake Sagami, takes the JR Chūō Main Line to Sagamiko Station.

Seasons and closures

Few seasonal notes appear on these pages: Samukawa Shrine holds its main festival every year on 20 September, and the hotel on the upper floors of Yokohama Landmark Tower closed for renovation in April 2025.
