Manai Falls
Takachiho Gorge, designated as a National Scenic Beauty and Natural Monument, is a stunning landscape formed by the erosion of pyroclastic flows from Mount Aso's eruption. The result is a unique gorge with striking columnar cliffs, known as columnar jointing.
Ran into a lot of Korean tourists who were talking really loudly, which was a bit of a shame for such beautiful scenery.

World Glassware Hall Inawashiro
This is one of Japan's largest glass specialty galleries, displaying around 25,000 items from both Japan and around the world. The gallery offers a wide array of products, including directly imported goods, original accessories, antiques, and decorative items, fully conveying the charm of glass products.
It doesn't really feel like a museum since there's no admission fee. It's mainly a place selling art glass products.

Nikko Toshogu
Nikko Toshogu is a shrine dedicated to the Edo shogun Ieyasu Tokugawa. It is the most visited spot within the World Heritage Site “Shrines and Temples of Nikko,” and here you can see 55 exceptional buildings, including 8 that have been designated as national treasures and 34 that have been designated as Important Cultural Properties.
The three monkeys at Nikko Toshogu, representing 'see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil,' are super cute. The omamori is JPY 1,000 each.
