Nikko Toshogu Shrine

Absolutely amazing. Indispensable stop in the travel. You need almost two or tree days to see everything. But with only one is enough to see almost one or two of the most impressive sanctuaries.

Absolutely lovely shrine , worth a visit! Wear slip-on shoes as you take them off a lot. The 200 steps to the inner shrine is pretty hard going and not stunning, if you have bad knees give it a miss.

Amazing architecture . Though the main shrine is under renovation until 2019, you can still get to see the inside of it. Just be prepared to take off your shoes !

Glad we made it here cos no shrines or temples we've seen in Tokyo even come close 2this.So deserving of its UNESCO heritage status!D heavily-forested site covers a wide area so 1 day is needed 2c all

What makes Toshogu so unique is its architecture - not Shinto or Buddhist but combination of both.It's also sumptuously decorated in gold,unlike other Japanese shrines & temples which r much simpler.

This place is rightfully a treasure. Beautiful. Find the original "hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil" monkeys, but look at the other monkey panels. They tell the monkey's life journey!

super gorgeous. i went nov 6 and the leaves were beautiful, there were plenty of tourists at that time, and it got busier through the month. watch the autumn leaf forecasts online to plan your visit.

If I had to choose between the shrines , I would pick this and Takio-Jinja. The scale is just huge. Downside - there at"re many people here!

This is not a shrine to be missed! Make sure you visit if you're in the area.

An amazing shrine to see in person while learning so much about the history. Be prepared to walk up and down a lot of stairs.

This was one of my favorite shrines to visit in Japan. The walks around the area are very scenic and peaceful .

Yomeimon, one of the most beautiful gates in Japan, is under restoration from 2013 to 2017 so you won't be able to see it during this time.

Don't miss the "crying dragon". Watch the full demonstration and hear the dragon roar! It's at the end before the exit.

Amazing architecture and fine art of Japanese greatest shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu tombstone

Suica/Pasmo accepted.

Bring socks if you planing to get inside the temple .

This Shinto Shrine is dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu , the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate , built in 1617. UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Amazing place you can't be missed.

So many people around, difficult to enjoy this place...

Pie and Mom sit on the right side.

Last entry at 3pm. Disappointing.

【世界文化遺産】現在の社殿群はそのほとんどがご鎮座から20年後の寛永13年(1636)に建て替えられたもの。陽明門など55棟、その費用は、金56万8千両、銀百貫匁、米 千石を要し、ご造営の総責任者には秋元但馬守泰朝、工事や大工 の総責任者には大棟梁甲良豊後宗広があたり、わずか1年5ヶ月の工期で完成しました。

初詣期間中、石鳥居のやや手前の砂利道に日光郵便局 が出張所を開設。日光駅前郵便局 、日光郵便局 が元日とかで休みでもここでハガキや年賀ハガキを買って差出せる。オリジナル切手シートの販売や、二荒山 ・輪王寺のオリジナルスタンプなどの特典もある。

冬季は15時半でチケット売り場と各寺社の入り口が閉まるのでご注意を。

Sigue siendo un gran templo y muy bonito auque esté en restauracion. Diferente al resto de los santuarios en Japón

Un lugar con mucho encanto. Tienes una ruta que bordea el conjunto... para amantes de la naturaleza

Los templos hermosos. Lugar interesante

Che dire... Nikko è imperdibile. Unico rimpianto: non esserci andata ad autunno più inoltrato per godere dei colori delle foglie.

世界遺産 　1999年登録　日光の社寺　日光って全部「日光東照宮」だと思っていたけど、二社一寺に分かれているのね。

Todo, muy Lindoy tranquilo .

鳴龍はちょっと混雑してます靴 を脱いで参拝するところは足が冷たい

いい感じに紅葉 が見頃でした。標高は634mスカイツリーと同じです。

大人は拝観料で1,300円 も払わなければならない。

三猿が有名ですが鳴龍がなかなか珍しいと思いました。1300円 入場料払うなら見た方がいいかと。

実は結構近いところに無料駐車場 がある。少し細い路地に入りますが。

色彩鮮やか。永らく品質を保てるのは、歴史の勝者故か？

神仏混在の世界観。本殿、鳴き龍両方入りました。

ベビーカー持ちは辛いです。境内の大木に歴史を感じます。

荘厳で厳かでパワーを頂けた。

見どころが沢山ありますね。

入場券は薬師堂でまた使うので無くさないようにしてください

紅葉 の時期がいいね。

言わずもがなの世界遺産 。

拝観券売場のリアル巫女さんが可愛い…\(//∇//)\

平成大修理終えて蘇った陽明門が美しい

世界国宝 の極み World Heritage!

ここの甘酒 やっぱり美味しい今回は冷たい

拝観受付時間 08:00-16:30

人が多くて落ち着かない。
