We visited Nikko World hertitage site. On the street of Nikko, we stopped to take a picture of a team preparing to carry a portable shire up the mountain and were invited to have some sake at 10:00AM. The Shinkyo Bridge is the link between the city and the shrines across the river.
Shinkyo BridgeThe Toshogu Shrine is dedicated to the Shogun who unified Japan. In side of its Torii gate,there are many beautiful building, many of which I would like to include here. So much color and so much gold.
Toshogu Shrine
There are many, many individual shrines and temples close together, so I have only named the major ones, - Toshogu Shrine, Futarasan Shrine, Taiyuin shrine, Rinnoji Temple, and the Abbott's garden.
It was a photographer's festival.
The Futarasan Shrine had such a colorful ceiling, I had to get down on my knees to get a good shot.
