- Nikko Tosho-gu - Nikko Toshogu serves as the resting place of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate, which governed Japan for more than 260 years. Unlike typical Shinto shrines, it is deliberately opulent, utilizing color, gold, and intricate carvings to represent political power and divine authority. This site is an excellent example of the blend of Shinto and Buddhism that influenced pre-modern Japan.
- Nikko Futarasan Shrine - Futarasan Shrine is devoted to the sacred mountains of Nikko, revered as deities since ancient times. Instead of grand structures, the emphasis here is on nature itself—mountains, forests, and water. This shrine illustrates the original Shinto belief that gods inhabit the natural world.
- Rinno-ji Temple - Rinno-ji symbolizes Buddhism in Nikko. It was established by the monk Shodo Shonin, who brought Buddhism to this area in the 8th century. Along with Toshogu and Futarasan Shrine, it demonstrates how Buddhism and Shinto coexisted in Japan for centuries.
- Shinkyo Bridge - This is a sample itinerary. The order and timing may vary based on traffic, weather, and guest preferences. Shinkyo Bridge serves as the sacred entrance to Nikko’s shrine and temple area. Traditionally, it marked the division between the ordinary world and the sacred realm. Crossing this bridge symbolically signifies entering a spiritual space.
