Nikkō (日光市) is a town located in the mountains of Tochigi prefecture (栃木県), a few hours by car from Minakami, where we were staying. To get there, we took a small road that winds through the mountains of Nikkō National Park, where some of Japan's most impressive scenery can be found - the waterfalls and lakes were so pretty I didn't even mind the hours spent in the car (carsickness ahoy!). I certainly wasn't expecting such beautiful ancient forests in Japan, somehow all those stories about overcrowding lead me to imagine that most of it would be covered in cement. It was such a pleasant surprise to find out I was wrong!
