Although famous for being the home of the ornate Toshogu Shrine, which is part of the area’s world heritage site, upon delving a little deeper, the area is brimming with inspiring scenery and unique hiking trails that are well-worth exploring.

除了著名的世界遺產東照宮外

And this is exactly where we’re headed.

只要再深入探究一下

I’m Sam Evans, staff writer for japan-guide.com, and today I’m on assignment in Nikko.

會發現令人鼓舞的風景和值得探討的遠足徑

Nikko is located about 2 hours north of Tokyo, and for this report we’ll be starting at the iconic Shinkyo Bridge before heading to the area’s main tourist attraction Toshogu Shrine.

這正是我這趟前往的地方

Then, after getting lunch we’ll head to the boardwalks of the Senjogahara Marsh which will eventually lead to Yudaki Falls, where our day will come to an end.

我是山姆·埃文斯，japan-guide.com的撰稿人 今天我被派往日光

So, follow along as we spend a day exploring Nikko.

日光位於東京以北約2小時

Okay, so we're here at Toshogu Shrine.

今天我以標誌性的神橋作為起點

Now, Toshogu Shrine is one of the most elaborately decorated shrines in all of Japan.

然後再前往該地區的主要景點 - 東照宮

Behind me stands the main gate.

午飯後往戰場平原沼澤的木板徑

It's been recently renovated and it looks pretty beautiful to me.

最終會到達湯瀑布，作為今天的終結

One of the focal points of the shrine is the mausoleum for Tokugawa Ieyasu.

所以請跟着我去

Now, Ieyasu was one of the most important figures in Japanese history, so this is a really special place

探索日光

As far as food goes, Nikko's specialty is yuba.

好了，來到了東照宮

Yuba is tofu skin, and behind me, there's a restaurant that serves the dish.

東照宮是全日本最華麗的聖地之一

I'm about to go in and try some.

在我身後的大門才剛進行了翻新

From the town, we've arrived in Okunikko.

看起來相當漂亮

It's known for its nature trails and beautiful scenic spots like this.

東照宮的重點之一是德川家康的陵墓

And that concludes our trip to Nikko.

德川家康是在日本歷史上最重要的人物之一

Thanks for joining me.

所以這裡是一個非常有意義的地方

I hope this video has been enjoyable and perhaps even inspires some ideas should you decide to plan a trip to Nikko.

至於在食物方面，日光的特產是腐竹
