Enoshima island and roses!
I’m Nobu, I like traveling overseas and in Japan, visited 25 countries. I’ve got the license of the certificate English guide in Japan for 8 years.
I show you hidden Japan which you have never seen and heard of!
Enoshima Island and the Botanical Garden
I went to Enoshima.
Enoshima is a popular resort destination for Tokyoites.
It’s warmer than Tokyo because it is washed by the warm currents of the Pacific Ocean.
And the vegetation is more tropical than mainland.
It is only about an hour from Tokyo.
So it is easy to put a day trip on your itinerary.
Also if you stay overnight, you can enjoy it even more together with Kamakura, which is only 20 minutes away.
Sea candle observatory
At the top of a hill on Enoshima Island , there is an observatory called Sea Candle.
At its foot is a botanical garden with many tropical plants.
Botanical garden
The botanical garden, named after the 19th century English trader “Samuel Cocking,”.
It is a blend of Japanese and Western plants with a tropical mood.
Visitors can enjoy a variety of flowers and plants from season to season.
Roses
The roses were very beautiful in May.
There are also many tall palm trees.
It was as if we were in a tropical country.
Admission to the Botanical Garden is 200 yen( 2 dollars) , and the Sea Candle Observation Deck is 500 yen( 5 dollars).
If you come to Tokyo, why don’t you enjoy the tropical atmosphere at Enoshima?
You will feel the relax atmosphere here!
I’m Nobu, one heart enjoy together!!!
