Japan: Day Seven, Nikko, Part One

Nikko is Nippon, or so the posters plastered all over the Tokyo metro proudly proclaim. After reading a bit about the place I was impressed enough to set aside two days for exploring it. First day I planned to go up to the Lake Chuzenji and Kegon Waterfall and then go on a hike in the park, and second day was to be devoted completely to the temple areas. With that in mind I took the Shinkansen (bullet train) then the local train route and arrived in Nikko two hours later.
