About Nikko

Nikko is a mountain town north of Tokyo, home to the lavishly decorated Toshogu Shrine, the red Shinkyo Bridge, Lake Chuzenji and the Kegon waterfall.

Nikko lies in the mountains of Tochigi Prefecture, in a national park of forests, lakes and waterfalls. Its shrines and temples are a World Heritage site, led by Toshogu, the mausoleum of the shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu, whose buildings are covered in gold leaf and carvings, among them the three wise monkeys and the sleeping cat. The red-lacquered Shinkyo Bridge crosses the Daiya River at the town's edge.
