Wear comfortable shoes for the steep stone stairway to the main hall; the climb is the shrine's key approach.
Walk the full approach through the vermilion torii gates instead of rushing in; it's one of the shrine's signature experiences.
Plan a short stop at the top of the stairs for city views; the main hall overlooks Kamakura.
