【🚃 Enoden and Mt 🗻. Fuji】 "Enoden and Mt.Fuji" Location▷▷▶ Kamakura, Shichirigahama 📍Location:Shichirigahama Beach,Kamakura ◇ A little-known spot where you can take pictures of Enoden and Mt. Fuji together. Nowadays, due to the influence of the anime Slam Dunk, Kamakura High School Mae Station is very popular and the people are amazing, but this is always a secret place where there are no people. To be honest, it's a place I don't want to tell you too much lol. On this day, it was raining the day before, so I could see Mt. Fuji from Kamakura. I was 😊 able to take a picture with the most popular 300 type in Enoden.
