Introduction
Kamakura High School, also known as Kanagawa Prefectural Kamakura High School, was awarded the title of "Most Beautiful High School in Japan" due to its proximity to the beautiful Kamakura High School Mae Station, which is recognized as one of the most beautiful train stations in Japan. The high school, located in a coastal area, serves as the prototype for Ryonan High School in the manga "Slam Dunk," and the sloping path from the school to the station is the famous scene where Sakuragi proclaims, "We've only just begun." While the school used to permit visits from tourists, it has currently stopped campus tours out of respect for student privacy. However, visitors may still have the opportunity to enter the campus during the summer vacation period. Please note that Japanese schools highly prioritize student safety and it is important to adhere to the school rules and refrain from taking any photographs while visiting the campus.
