Japan travel: Nikko Drone video and day tour.
Nikkō (日光市 Nikkō-shi) is a city located in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan.
There are also many famous hot springs (onsen) in the area. Elevations range from 200 to 2,000 m.
Nikko is a Buddhist-Shinto religious centre, its shrines and temples scattered among the hilly woodlands. At times we felt lost among the towering pines and cedars, yet incredibly connected to the nature and spirituality that surrounded us.
Here are some of the popular attractions in Nikko you should visit:
