Shrines and Temples of Nikko - UNESCO World Heritage Site

The Shrines and Temples of Nikko are a fascinating and beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Site in Japan. Located near Tokyo in central Japan, the three main shrines and temples here are a testament to Japanese art, architecture and culture. Interestingly, the complex is a mix of Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples, which fits with the not-overly-religious culture of Japan. There's a lot of great stuff to see here at the three main sights of Futarasan, Tosho-gu and Rinno-ji, so let's check it out!
