Last Updated April 10, 2020

On the northern route of Seya Station on the Kamakura Kodo and Joto, there are Seya Hachifukujin, shrines and temples, Jizo-son, Dosojin, and mansion forests and old private houses that seem to stop the flow of time. In addition, there is a special area for Kamiseya agriculture, which is Seya's largest agricultural area, and a row of cherry blossom trees on the Navy Road (Ring Route 4), so you can feel valuable historical heritage and lush nature.
