Nikko Japan | A Dy Trip To Nikko from Tokyo
It’s best to take a to take ‘NIKKO PASS ALL AREA’ so that there will be no limitation of boarding the buses in different location.
Nikko is famous for its Autumn leaf colours. Now I think due to rain, autumn colours are looking more brighter and vibrant.
First i am going to Taiyuan which is the mausoleum of the third Tokugawa shogun, “ Lemitsu.” To enter the place you need to take a ticket which is about 550 yen. A lavishly decorated Nitenmon Gate, which is guarded by two heavenly kings. “Nitenmon gate” is actually a gate of two guardians”.
Next I will take you to Futarasan Shrine.
Futarasan Shrine was founded in 782 by Buddhist monk, Shodo Shonin, who introduced Buddhism in Nikko. This Shinto shrine was dedicated and named after Mount Futara, which is commonly known as Mt. Nantai. This shrine has a deep religious significance. Three mountain deities, Mount Nantai, Mount Nyoho and Mount Taro are worshiped here.
After that Ii will go to Ryuzu Waterfall.
It is one the best waterfall of Nikko. In Japanese Ryuzu Waterfall means “dragon head waterfall”.
Now I will go to Kegon Falls.
Kegon Falls is one of the 3 most beautiful waterfalls of Japan. Here you can see Water from Lake Chuzenji falls from the huge rock and that’s the way Kegon waterfall has formed. It is 97 meter long.
Lastly i will go towards Lake Chuzenji.
Lake Chuzenji is the largest lake in Tochigi prefecture. You can see 25 kilometres of incredible nature around it.It was created 20,000 years ago when Mount Nantai (2484 m) erupted and blocked the river.
Try to take “Chuzenji Lake Boat cruise”.It’s an hour journey. Only from the cruise You can enjoy the great panoramic views of the seasonal beauty of Lake Chuzenji.
