My Tokyo Trip(5) – Kamakura, town of history, town of SLAM DUNK 我的東京之旅(5) – 鎌倉，《灌籃高手》的聖地

為了去鎌倉，我一大早六點起床，因為從我的民宿坐車到鎌倉需要2個小時，而花這麼長的坐車時間去鎌倉的目的只有一個，就是朝聖！

Today I woke up at 6am and took 2 hours’ train to Kamakura. There is only one reason worth me to take so long transport time to Kamakura – “SLAM DUNK”.

鎌倉位於神奈川縣西面的海岸，距東京市中心大約1個小時的車程，雖然這只是一個人口18萬的小鎮，但絕不要小看它，因為它是日本12至14世紀政權「鎌倉幕府」的所在地，留下了無數歷史遺跡。

Kamakura is at the west coast of Kanagawa Prefecture, with around 1 hour train from the center of Tokyo. Kamakura is only a small town with population around 180K, but it was the
capital of Japan during the Kamakura period (1185-1333). In Kamakura, you may see a lot of history from the Kamakura period.

另一方面，由於鎌倉是東京最接近海的地方，所以每到夏天都有無數少男少女來此渡假，更是不少日本劇集和電影的拍攝地。其中最著名的，自然就是《灌籃高手》了！雖然《灌籃高手》是漫畫，但當中有一些畫面都是取材自鎌倉這個地方！

Furthermore, as Kamakura is at the coast, every summer there are lot of young people having their vacation in the place. It is also the place that many Japan dramas and films take shot. “SLAM DUNK”, super famous animation in Japan, also have a lot of scene and picture of Kamakura.

當天我早上六點起床，梳洗後匆匆到便利店買一個三明治就出發了，經過在鐵路上的瘋狂睡眠，我終於在上午九時到達鎌倉的江之島站。我慢慢地到海邊，一片大海洋迎風吹到我的視綫，右邊遠處是另一美景江之島，不過時間不夠我就不去了。由於時間尚早，沙灘只有寥寥幾人獨佔這沙灘，我開始幻想周末下午時比堅尼美女在此奔波蕩樣的美景。

I woke up at 6am and bought a sandwich in convenient store. Then I started the journey. After taking a long way of 2 hours, I finally arrived Kamakura at 9am. I walked to the beach and saw the big sea. Far away at the right side was Enoshima, also a beautiful island. As it might be too early there were only few people on the beach. I started to imagine young ladies with bikini running and swimming at the beach in the afternoon.

沿著大海繼續出發，右邊是海洋，左邊則是鐵路路軌，偶有列車經過，給人一種舒適而寧靜的感覺，如果說谷根千保留了江戶時代的傳統，這裡就是真真正正的日本民鄉，更能洗滌你的心靈。

Walking along the sea, the left side of the railway track and right side was the sea. It’s the feeling of relaxing. I believed it was the true life of Japanese, the relaxing life in town.

走了十多分鐘，終於到達朝聖地了！大家還記得《灌籃高手》主題曲中，櫻木花道在鐵路路軌的對面，見到晴子跟他打招呼嗎？就是這個地方了！感動的存在呀！不過沒想到九時多的早上，都有接近10名遊客也到了這裡瘋狂拍照，我不敢想像下午這裡會是如何的人山人海，幸好早上來了！

After 10 minutes’ walk, I finally arrived my destination. Do you still remember of MV of the theme song of “SLAM DUNK”? Sakuragi stood in front of the rail track and Haruko said hi to him at another side of the track. That’s the place!

在此感動了10分鐘後，我坐上江之島電鐵到鎌倉駅。江之電於1902年通車，至今已超過100年歷史了，是日本僅餘的路面電車。電車外型保持了當年的古舊，在大海旁行駛，然後在民居窄巷間穿梭，兩旁樓房花團走過，景觀極美，難怪日本有那麼多鐵路迷了。

After the great memories of SLAM DUNK, I took the Enoshima Electric Railway to Kamakura station. The railway started operation in 1902, with over 100 years’ history. It is the only electric railway on the ground in Japan now. The tram remained its traditional old style and drove along the sea. Then it go through the residential buildings letting you enjoy the beautiful view in Kamakura.

到了鎌倉駅，當然要走一走鎌倉最熱鬧的老街小町通，小町通在1000年前已經熱鬧非常，直到今天已有超過數百間特產手信、道地小吃和餐廳，吸引大量遊客。本來我對這些熙來攘往的街道興趣不大，只打算走走就算，但竟給我發現一家どんぐり共和國！宮崎駿的動畫都是伴我成長的珍貴回憶，我竟也忍不住進去買了紀念品……

Arriving Kamakura station, I visited the Komachi-dori Street. It was already a lively street 1000 years ago and now the street is lined with over 250 restaurants, boutiques, fancy cafes and souvenirs stores. And I found a Donguri Republic! The cartoons of Miyazaki Hayao were my best friends when I was in childhood. I like the cartoons of Miyazaki Hayao so much!

最後，也為大家製作了小視頻，希望大家欣賞 :)

Again, a video for you!

鎌倉雖然距離東京市中心比較遠，但對愛好寧靜，輕鬆自在的朋友來說，絕對是一大推介，我甚到打算找一次再來東京就住在鎌倉，花幾天好好細味這個療癒小鎮。

Although Kamakura is quite far away from Tokyo center, if you like silence and relax, Kamakura is the best place for you. Next time if I visit Tokyo again, I will probably stay in Kamakura for few days to enjoy the environment.
