In Yamanouchi, Nikko City, and its surrounding area, home to the World Heritage Site "Two Shrines and One Temple," you can see over 1,000 years of sacred history everywhere. While it's inaccessible by car and takes a long time to get there on foot, with an electric-assist bicycle you won't have to worry about hills, traffic jams, or parking. A local historian with extensive knowledge of the area will guide you through Nikko's temple town, along with recommended gourmet food.
You can't get there by car, and it's a bit difficult to get there on foot, but with an electric assist bicycle you can go anywhere you want.
During the tourist season, traffic jams and crowds can be a hassle, but with a bicycle, it's no problem. The electric assist makes it easy to ride up hills.
Toshogu Shrine is known worldwide as the leading UNESCO World Heritage Site with two shrines and one temple. Why was it built here? Learn about the history of this sacred site, which dates back over 1,000 years, and you'll understand. We'll also introduce the new charms of Nikko, which have captivated foreign dignitaries since the Meiji era.
