Daibutsu Kiridoshi Pass

Yuigahama / Hase / Gokurakuji Area

Daibutsu Kiridoshi Pass is located approximately 2 km south-west from Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine and approximately 0.4 km north-west from Daibutsu (Great Buddha) of Kamakura [G]. It is located at a place where one of the main roads from Kamakura toward the direction of Kyoto goes over a mountain in the west part of Kamakura. The present “kiridoshi” pass extends for approximately 0.5 km in total along the ridge which stretches east-west. In its vicinity, channels and manmade flatlands remain and some of them accompany “yagura” caves.
