What is a city/town that is close to Tokyo, but still has that "Classic Japan" feel?

Question:


My family and I are in the beginning process of planning a vacation and we are exploring our options. Feel free to recommend other ideas.

Answer:


I do recommend "Kamakura" located some 50km south west of Tokyo or less than one hour train ride from Central Tokyo. This city has tons of sights either temples and shrines, beautiful gardens,
a beautiful beach. Enosima Island, many many restaurants, souvenior shops.
The train fare is 890en one way from the central Tokyo Stn to Kamakura stn.
