About Tochigi Prefecture

Tochigi Prefecture, located in Japan’s Kantō region, offers a captivating blend of cultural heritage and natural beauty. It is best known for Nikko, a UNESCO World Heritage site featuring ornate shrines and temples set amid lush forests and mountains. Visitors are drawn to its tranquil hot springs, stunning waterfalls like Kegon Falls, and vibrant autumn foliage. The prefecture’s diverse landscape ranges from mountainous terrain perfect for hiking and outdoor adventures to peaceful rural towns rich in traditional crafts and cuisine. Tochigi’s accessibility from Tokyo makes it an ideal day trip or weekend getaway for travelers seeking to experience authentic Japanese culture away from urban bustle.

Travel Tips

The best time to visit is spring for cherry blossoms and autumn for foliage. Pack comfortable walking shoes, weather-appropriate clothing, and a light jacket for cooler mountain areas. Respect local customs such as removing shoes indoors and speaking quietly at temples. Carry cash as some places do not accept cards. Safety is high, but be mindful of natural terrain when hiking.
