Tokyo to nikko

Located around two hours to the north of Tokyo in Tochigi Prefecture, the small city of Nikko is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country, and justifiably so.

Tucked away among the mountains with forests all around it, Nikko is home to lots of impressive Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples; these exhibit some of the best examples of art and architecture from the Edo period.

In addition to its many historical and cultural tourist attractions, Nikko is renowned for its beautiful mountain scenery.

The surrounding forests are full of sparkling waterfalls, glimmering lakes, and steaming hot springs for you to explore. While most people only visit as a day trip from the nation’s capital, it is well worth spending a few days here to explore all the things to do in Nikko and see it’s fantastic historical sites and natural wonders
