Nikko, a world cultural heritage city, has its own unique charm. The atmosphere is calm and unhurried, unlike big cities like Tokyo. Perfect for a slow stroll, enjoying both culture and nature. 💛
✨ Must-See Highlights
🏯 World Heritage shrines and temples, such as Nikko Tōshō-gū, Futarasan Shrine, and Rinnō-ji Temple, are beautiful and steeped in history.
🌉 Shinkyo Bridge, the entrance to the ancient shrine, is awe-inspiring.
🍁 Take a nature walk during the fall foliage season or ❄️ during the snowy winter.
💦 Kegon Falls and 🌊 Lake Chūzenji are beautiful year-round.
🛀 Soak in the onsen (hot springs) in the Kinugawa area or Lake Chuzenji for a truly Japanese experience.
