Regenerative Tourism Strategy Circle

How can we help visitors spend more time in Kamakura and experience local life and culture, rather than visiting the Great Buddha and leaving the same day? We are exploring this question together.

In fact, around 90% of Kamakura’s visitors come on day trips, and tourism revenue remains surprisingly low despite the large number of visitors. Tourism is a valuable source of income for Kamakura, and communities are increasingly using tourism to revive local culture. We want to try that here too, which is why we began this strategy circle.
