Chigogafuchi

Chigogafuchi is a coveted destination set on the southwestern side of Enoshima, a marine plateau formed by the earth rising after the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923. The name "Chigogafuchi" is derived from the tragic tale of a chigo (apprentice monk) named Shiragiku, who was training at Soushouin, a temple affiliated with Tsurugaoka Hachimangu in Kamakura.
