Japan · Tochigi
A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
日光市
Begin with Shinkyo and the shrine area on your first visit to Nikko. Take time with the river and decorated buildings; plan the lake area separately.
This guide covers places within Nikko, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Three places with different atmospheres. Start with the one that appeals to you instead of visiting them all.
01History in the details
日光東照宮
A shrine dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu. Take time with the colors and carvings around Yomeimon, while respecting worship and photography guidance.
Getting there
Check buses toward the shrines from JR or Tobu Nikko Station
02A red bridge over the river
神橋
A red bridge at the entrance to Nikko’s shrine and temple area, belonging to Futarasan Shrine. Begin with the river view; check separate visitor guidance before entering the bridge.
Getting there
Check buses from Nikko Station toward the Shinkyo stop
Water from the lake
華厳ノ滝
A waterfall fed by Lake Chuzenji. It is far from the central shrine area, so plan a separate outing with bus travel. Weather and water flow affect the view.
Getting there
Check buses from Nikko Station toward Chuzenji Onsen
02 · A LITTLE BITE
Nikko’s yuba is made from the skin that forms on heated soy milk. Look for fresh yuba and simmered preparations, checking each dish’s ingredients, allergens and price.
Official guide03 · YOUR FIRST WALK
Try Shinkyo bus stop → the bridge surroundings → Nikko Toshogu. Take breaks on steps and slopes. Visit Kegon Falls on a separate bus outing.
