Engaku-ji Temple

Kamakura · Japan

Step off the train at Kita-Kamakura Station and walk directly into one of Zen Buddhism's most important complexes in Japan, a sprawling hillside compound of moss-covered sub-temples, meditation halls, and ancient bells. The peaceful atmosphere and forest setting make it a genuinely restorative start to the day even for kids who are templing out by day four.
