Japan Photo Travel Nikkō

On January 5, we headed to Nikkō with my parents. I had been there once in 2002, so it had been a long time!

Nikkō's Tōshō-gu is a Shinto shrine famous for being the location of the oldest known representation of the famous three wise monkeys ("see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil"). While the story has come from China, the monkeys came from the Japanese-translated saying. You can learn a lot more about this at Wikipedia.

So here are my best photos of the day.
