What people say

"Nikkƍ (æ—„ć…‰) is a lovely day trip or overnight getaway. Perfect for a quieter experience and located in the mountains and close to nature, the area is especially beautiful in Autumn. The trip takes about 2 hours from Tokyo from the Tobu Asakusa Station, which can be accessed by subway (Ginza and Asakusa subway lines). A slightly more expensive option is to take the JR Tohoku Shinkansen (from Tokyo or Ueno Station) to Utsunomiya Station and transfer to the JR Nikko Line. Once there, Nikko's famous shrines and temples are all clustered around in one area. You can walk about 30 minutes from the train station or take buses headed in the direction of Lake Chuzenji. Other sights include Kegon Falls and the Nikkƍ Botanical Garden. For more information visit https://www.japan-guide.com/e/e3805.html"
"Escape to Nikko's serene embrace, a haven of ancient shrines and natural beauty. Discover the ornate Toshogu Shrine honoring Tokugawa Ieyasu. Marvel at Lake Chuzenji and Kegon Falls' majestic vistas. Immerse in Japan's history and spirituality in this peaceful retreat."
