Nikko - Day 1

Last Friday, I went to Nikko with two friends. One is the ALT at Oyama High School. The other is our Japanese friend that we met in Tokyo. We stayed at a hostel because it was cheap, but the hostel owner was really, really helpful and friendly. On Saturday, we did things around Nikko City. We went to several shrines including Tosho-gu. It was so cheap. I was really surprised. You could buy a pass to 5 shrines for only 1,000 yen. The fall colors were perfect too.
There were lots of interesting buildings in Nikko.
Sacred Bridge- The lighting was always really bad, so it was difficult to get a nice picture.

The fall colors were so pretty. We went at the perfect time.


This is at Tosho-gu.
This was a cool antique shop.
