We went to Nikko for a weekend away 2 weeks ago. It is in the mountains with temples, waterfalls, hiking trails, monkeys and onsen.

We enjoyed the cool weather as it was about 33 degress in Tokyo.

First day - we went around the temples, shrines and waterfall.

Kegon waterfall would of been spectacular but as it was sprinkling rain all day it was foggy and we didn't get a clear view of it but it was still spectacular, you go in an elevator that takes you 100m underground and as soon as the door opens - your hit by the freezing temperatures.

The next day - we went to Edo Wonderland, it is like a theme park mixed in with a museum. It was a lot of fun!
