After I moved from Kyoto to Tokyo, Kamakura was my favorite place to go to for a little peace and quiet. About 40 miles south-west of my new place in Tokyo, the small town, sometimes referred to as Little Kyoto, was my secret getaway to escape from pressures associated with living alone in a big city.
In Kamakura, I liked walking around with no detailed plans, just enjoying the ambiance of a picturesque town rich in history and culture. It's no surprise a place like this attracts many visitors, and some streets are always crowded with tourists and students on a school field trip. This temple (in today's painting), a little off the beaten path, was a must for me because I liked its natural setting with a secluded feel.
