Nikkosan Rinnoji Temple has a long history and impressive, dignified architecture. As soon as you step inside, you can feel a calm and peaceful atmosphere.
The temple preserves many valuable Buddhist statues and cultural treasures, showing deep religious and artistic significance. Walking through the grounds, the old buildings and natural scenery complement each other beautifully.
It’s a relaxing place that also helps you better understand Nikko’s history and culture. A classic spot that’s worth taking your time to appreciate.

Shirahige Falls
One of the iconic attractions of the Biei Shirogane Onsen area, Shirahige Falls lives up to its name as white streams cascade down a rugged cliff like a "white beard”, dropping approximately 30 meters into the Biei River. This waterfall is classified as a rare "subterranean stream waterfall" (senryu-baku), where water flows directly from cracks in the rock face.
The water at Shirahige Falls pours down along the rock wall, looking graceful like a white beard. Paired with the deep blue stream, the scenery is truly charming.
It has a different beauty in every season and is a natural spot in Biei that’s well worth visiting. -

Sensoji Temple
This iconic destination in Asakusa sees as many as 30 million visitors each year. It stands as a well-loved mainstay in Tokyo, all while hosting a number of annual traditions like the first temple visit at New Years, Setsubun and more across the year.
Sensoji Temple has a rich historical and cultural atmosphere. Kaminarimon Gate and Nakamise Shopping Street are lively and full of character. Besides visiting the temple, you can enjoy local food and shop for souvenirs. It’s a must-visit spot in Tokyo.

Ueno Park
Ueno Park, officially known as "Ueno Onshi Park," is located in Taito Ward, Tokyo. Managed by the Tokyo Metropolitan Construction Bureau, the park spans an impressive area of 530,000 square meters and has a rich history.
Ueno Park is lush and green, with charming scenery in every season. It’s especially lively during cherry blossom season.
With nature, art museums, and museums all in one place, it’s a great spot for a walk or a relaxing break. -
