Futarasan Shrine is a centre of worship located in the Nikko Mountains at Tochigi, Japan. It is famous for Matchmaking shrine. Many visitors come to pray for good luck and success in love. The entrance is free, but if you visit the garden the entrance ($2) is required. I recommend you to visit the garden and drink spring water inside. Or try the fortune telling. The shrine is accessible on foot or by bus from Nikko Station. The walk takes about 45 minutes from Nikko Station along with the pleasant forest-lined roads. Nature beauties and large trees make you relax and refresh the mind. We spent around two hours to walk all the area. It’s very close to the natural forest. #givethanks #givethanks

#0yentripFebruary2025 Date: End of November Weather: Sunny 19/11℃ The peak time for the autumn leaves in Nikko is between 9am and 2pm. If you are going to Nikko by car on weekends, head there at 8am to avoid the huge traffic jams on Irohazaka. Because it is a busy time, you don't need a map. It gets hot because you basically walk. I had planned to buy a free bus ticket, but I was able to walk more than I expected, and I heard that it is faster to walk during the autumn leaves season, so I did sightseeing on foot. ▼Time schedule 6:17 Depart Otemachi Station (Tokyo) 9:18 Arrive Tobu Nikko Station 9:43 Shinkyo Bridge 9:45 Nikko Shrine and Temple Rocks 9:51 Nikkozan Rinnoji Temple 9:56 Arrive at the entrance to Nikko Toshogu Shrine ▼Nikko Toshogu Shrine - 1600 yen There is a long line of people buying admission tickets. It opens from 9am, so it may be empty if you come at that time. If you buy your ticket online first and have it issued at the entrance, you can enter without waiting in line. The stairs leading up to the inner shrine are crowded and there is a line, so it is a good idea to go to the toilet just before Nemuneko. It was crowded so it took about 20 minutes. Please note that there is a separate line for visiting Kanasugi. ▼Food Tsuruya Nikko Omotesando Store - Cheese egg 120 yen Nasu's rusk shop - An ice cream and rusk shop that randomly puts chocolates of the three monkeys on your ice cream. 650 yen #Nikko Toshogu Shrine #Nikko #Nikko gourmet #Nikko Futarasan Shrine #Nikko sightseeing #Autumn leaves spot #Autumn leaves

We were thinking of visiting Japan again in Jan 2024 (for the fifth time now), and did our research extensively to also save some time and cost from transportation for our trip. We finally decided on visiting Nikko as one of first stop for our Jan 2024 Japan trip and we were so glad we did. We booked the Nikko area pass which gave us 4 days of unlimited travel within the designated area. So we maximized the pass and explored Nikko. We visited the main attractions in Nikko (see images) and tried some of their local delicacies. Getting around Nikko wasn’t difficult too. The main point is to take note of bus timetables to plan your daily trip and you’ll be fine. Overall, we enjoyed our trip to Nikko and would recommend visiting it if you have never been there before! ##nikko2024 #japan2024

The ancient Japanese city of Nikko The cherry blossoms of the niche daylight springs are just right, in the sunny morning in the spring, perhaps inadvertently pass by 100%. Japan's ancient city daylight, gives a lot of surprises. The architecture and history that the worlds cultural heritage of the Wakayama Shrine and the Toshogu Shrine are not inferior to other ancient capitals of Japan. In Japan, there is such a famous saying "daylight sees the structure of the rumors", meaning: if you travel, if you do not go to the sun, it feels a lot worse. Visible daylight is a very popular tourist destination among locals. The opening of the cherry blossoms is about mid-April. In addition to ancient temples, beautiful forests and natural scenery are also one of the charms of daylight. Transportation: It takes about two hours by train from Tokyo. main attractions: Erhuangshan Shrine, Dongzhao Palace, Zhongchansi Lake. Play: Daylight is not big, and day trips can be achieved.

It is said that the entire Utsunomiya is built around the Wakayama Shrine. The shrine is the city center. The shrine is free, but if you want to go in, you have to climb a long staircase. In Japan, the shrine stairs should go on both sides. It is said that the middle is for the gods. The shrine was founded in the first year of the Shenhu Jingyun (767), and the style of the shrine's architectural structure is the right-made style of stone-based wooden structures. The main worship of the gods is the three mountain gods of Nikko: Dajigui, Tianxinji, and Mizhao Gaoyan, collectively known as the Great God of the Second Mountain. In 836, the Great God of the Barren Mountain was given the title of Five Five Downs. Close to the evening shrine, quiet and comfortable.

The two sacred mountain shrines have a high status in Japan. They were built in 767 AD. The main worship of the gods is the three mountain gods of Nikko: Dajigui, Tianxinji, and Miso Gaoyan, because they became in the Kamakura era. The patron saint of the Kanto region was thrived by the devout faith of the shogunate and the tyrannical. There is the first bird house in Japan, which is good for the shrine gate. This is the oldest style "right to make". Speaking of the origin of the torii, there is another legend in Shinto. Because of the tempering with the brothers, the Azure God found a cave to hide and use the stone to block the hole. Therefore, there is no sun in the world. Everyone thought of a way to build a high bracket, put all the cocks on it, let all the cocks scream together, the god of the sky is strange, push the stone to see, those who are hiding The sumo wrestlers immediately seized the opportunity to push the stone away and the world was re-launched. The bracket that placed the cock became the first torii. After the Tori, it is the shrine's main hall, which is dedicated to the three mountain gods. Here, you can't see the scenes of the Buddhist temple's incense and smog; here, you can't hear the Christian church soothing. The soothing sound of the soul, the communication with the gods, everything is carried out in a soft whisper. If you also have a heartfelt visit, you can go up and squat twice, clap twice, and squat again and pray for a few seconds. After the prayer, you can gently ring the gongs on the side. Shinto believes that You can get the attention of God.
