Every year in summer, a Star Festival is held called Tanabata. Two star deities, Orihime and Hikoboshi, can meet each other in the night sky.

"Very close to the train lines. Lots of food options and close to many shops. Highly recommend if you’re headed to Kamakura and Enoshima as it’s a good midway point, direct train lines to both locations. Also easily accessible to Haneda airport with 1 transfer. We did not try their breakfast."
