The area around Kegon waterfall is some of the most stunning scenery I have ever seen. The bus trip in itself is an adventure, especially the return down the Irozahak Winding Road with it's numerous 29 and 30 metre radius hairpins. The skill of the bus drivers is something else.
nah i feel like yudaki is the best waterfall in that area, and yeah, somehow the constant swerving while driving through the slopes has some sort of hypnotizing effect, everyone on the bus was asleep every time they went up or down the slope lol.
My wife, myself & her parents spent a few days at Honke Bankyu Onsen, visited the Toshogu Shrine (Ieyasu & others), Mitsikuni Retirement Village, Rinnoji Temple - brilliant experience that I'll cherish forever.
A stunning place! Absolutely perfect to people who want to avoid waves of tourists. No doubt, it is on my list of special places. Marvellous job Japan-guide Team.
Staying in okunikko hot spring during winter is one of my favourite visit in Japan. It so quite and peacefull (and cold). Practically no one there at the lake when we visit it. The ryokan is also nice as I practically alone in the outdoor onsen watching the snow fall.
been to Nikko 14 years ago, the video brings me good memories, I have also visited Japan in 2013, 2016 and 2018 and did not have enough time to revisit it again.
Thanks for including a hiking route. :) I hope that in the future you guys could point us at other hiking routes, I believe that aspect is not covered as much as I would like.
I have just started watching the video but I know that it will be really beyond expectations & informative too. Presentation as always is really good. ❤️😊
I've seen no. 5 and 1 when I visited Nikko in 2018. I also walked along the river with its many Jizo statues.. in the morning mist it was almost magical 😍 next time I wanna see the Okunikko region!
Be sure not to miss the last bus back to Nikko, if you were to choose to take a dip at Yumoto onsen. It is easy to forget time after the hike and a well deserved bath >.
Interesting! This is like a Japanese history class and the narration is nice, too. We are also introducing Japan in our channel and these days showing deserted Tokyo for the state of emergency. The concept of your channel is different from ours but it is really fun to watch your video.
Nice history lesson here! Thanks for the video, great stuff as always. Whish I could be able to go on a huge hike there one day! Also, the food looks absolutely delicious.
I can't believe I've been to Nikko twice and missed 5, 4, 2 and the tombs🤦🏻♂️. If only this video was out earlier. Another excuse to return to Nikko, I guess!
i've been to nikko just once in dec 2019 and i saw almost everything on this list and i say "almost" because for the imperial villa, i didn't really purchased a ticket and entered it, i just used its toilet and sat outside for like 20mins to chill lol.
@@EddieMunstar87 i've always adored him. I love all the hosts, but there's something about Matt that makes me really want to go to Japan the moment I see him in the videos here
It almost feels like these videos now are mocking me, especially since covid made me cancel my trip I was bound to take next week. But still good information!
7:20 Wrong. Toyotomi Hideyoshi is not buried in Nikko. His Mausoleum is situated in Kyoto, just south east of the city area. Where did you get that misinformation from?
@@japanguide Saying that Toyotomi Hideyoshi is enshrined there is a bit of a nebulous statement. What is there to see regarding that? The Hideyoshi mausoleum in Kyoto has a tori.
I like your videos but in every video I'm very disappointed about the word spelling you have. Just say the names correctly and not in the disgusting english way. Noone will learn how to spell the words correctly if even you don't do it. So many nonenglish native speaker are annoyed by this.
I cannot wait to get back to Japan. Words simply fail to convey just how beautiful that country is.
Same!!
Japan is so beautiful
The Koyo (the reddening of the leaves in autumn) is so beautiful...

I've been twice to Japan now and I have yet to visit Nikko. If it wasn't already, it certainly is now!
One of the most impressive places I've visited.
What a great job by Matt Evans, Thomas Roennlund, Stefan Schauwecker!
Thank you so much!
I remember being here 😊 Miss this place lots of walking but hey Loved every stroll 🥰
A stunning place! Absolutely perfect to people who want to avoid waves of tourists. No doubt, it is on my list of special places.
Marvellous job Japan-guide Team.
Amazing! The little history facts at the beginning are an awesome idea.
Have missed 4 trips to Japan because of this pandemic. I can't wait to get back and tour again.

Adding another point to my already long list. Can´t wait to visit japan! Thanks for the video.
I spent a night there and tour the temples and shrines. Certainly of of many memorable places I visited in Japan.
I gotta say that the lake that's in the same area as the waterfalls is a sight to be hold as well.
Thanks for including a hiking route. :) I hope that in the future you guys could point us at other hiking routes, I believe that aspect is not covered as much as I would like.
Thank you very much for the video! 😃
Yeaheee, Matt! 😍
I thought i was mistaken, it is so good to hear and catch glimpses of him. It would be lovely if he returned to Japan
I have just started watching the video but I know that it will be really beyond expectations & informative too. Presentation as always is really good. ❤️😊
Wonderful video. Very informative with beautiful shots and great narration!
Thanks a lot!
Thank you for sharing a nice place!
I hope to return to a world where you can go wherever you like as soon as possible!

Thank you so much!
I’m supposed to visit Nikko last December but COVID struck the world
I’d like to visit Japan again!
I've seen no. 5 and 1 when I visited Nikko in 2018. I also walked along the river with its many Jizo statues.. in the morning mist it was almost magical 😍 next time I wanna see the Okunikko region!
Love Nikko so beautiful ❤️
I love this channel

Matt! 😊🤗
Miss him dearly

How long is this trip? Can it be a day trip?
What is the total amount we need to get a student visa to japan??🤔🤔
You guys left out the Kanmangafuchi Abyss...it deserves a spot on this list imo..also beware of bears in nikko.
MASHA ALLAH so beautiful Japan 🇯🇵 ❤
Nice video
Thank you so much!

sam evans 👌
Think of so much
7:20 Wrong. Toyotomi Hideyoshi is not buried in Nikko.
His Mausoleum is situated in Kyoto, just south east of the city area.
Where did you get that misinformation from?
I think you are misunderstanding, the video states that Hideyoshi’s spirit is enshrined at Nikko alongside Ieyasu and Minamoto Yoritomo.
@@japanguide Saying that Toyotomi Hideyoshi is enshrined there is a bit of a nebulous statement.
What is there to see regarding that?
The Hideyoshi mausoleum in Kyoto has a tori.
Nakamoto Satoshi Toshogu Shrine
Who spotted Sam Evans? :)
Nice catch :)

｢超個人的な｣日光でやるべき5つ+1つのこと。
1.ご先祖様のお墓参りをする。(如来寺)
2.いつ倒壊するか分からない旧実家(廃墟)の様子を見に行く。(3.11にはギリギリ耐えられた模様)
3.市内に住んでいる親戚に挨拶回りして｢まだ結婚しないの？｣と心配される。(お約束)
4.上澤梅太郎商店に行き、都内では入手困難な｢大根のたまり漬(単品)｣を大量に買い、後日会社の同僚達(大根の中毒者)に言い値で転売する。
5.石田屋の今市工場に行き、バターレフト(日光甚五郎煎餅)のアウトレット品を｢一斗缶｣で買ってくる。
(味が付き過ぎた当たり品を一斗缶の中から探し出すのが楽しい)
+1.日光市と宇都宮市の境目辺り(石那田町)にある洋菓子店･チレボンでソフトクリームを堪能した後、ハードアイスクリームを持参したクーラーボックスに入るだけ買って帰る。
鳥よし、パロット、びしゃもんなどあの辺は食べるものが美味しいですよね。今小も懐かしいですよね
