Kamakura city is old capital of 8 hundreds years ago which was established by the Shogun Minamoto who is founded the Samurai's government at first. Of course, this city is popular for tourists due to  the beautiful and historical sites.

Former house of famed Manga artist Ryuichi Yokoyama

This Starbucks store of Kamakura is located at the site of famed Japanese cartoon artist Ryuichi Yokoyama. Kamakura was known as a cottage area until recent years due to the scenic beauty and there are still some old beautiful guest houses.

This store is known for the beautiful Japanese wisteria over the small garden pool. I regret to say I have no picture of it because I have never been in spring, but I'd like to show the another picture of Japanese wisteria.

Japanese style terrace

It has a Japanese style terrace in front of the old pool and we can sit over the Japanese Tatami cushion and mat. It's very hot in summer in Japan and elderly Japanese were used to be sit in front of their houses for cooling.
