Travel Tips
Useful tips for visiting Nikko
Buy Nikko World Heritage Pass (3000 yen) — includes train from Asakusa and local buses for 2 days.
Carry cash — many small shops and traditional restaurants do not accept cards.
Try yuba — local specialty made from tofu skin. Yuba soba and yuba tempura are must-try dishes.
Wear comfortable walking shoes — heritage sites require stair climbing and walking on gravel.
Avoid weekends in autumn season — very crowded. Weekdays are much better.
Kegon Falls: viewing from top is free. Elevator to lower platform (best view) 600 yen.
Do not tip — tipping is not customary in Japan and may be considered rude.
Bring rain gear — Nikko is a rainy area, especially from June to September.
