If you live near Misawa Air Base and travel to Kyoto is not on the itinerary this year, you don’t need to travel too far to enjoy a shrine similar to the old capital’s famous Fushimi Inari Shrine.
Enoshima Island, off the coast of Kanagawa Prefecture, is a popular tourist attraction. Here you’ll find various shrines, souvenir shops housed in traditional Japanese buildings and many eateries with great views of the ocean and landscape. Many street cats call the island home, so don’t be surprised to spot a few during a visit.
