The Sea of Happiness ☺️

Lake Chuzenji is in Nikko National Park in the city of Nikko, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. It is located at the foot of Mount Nantai. There are many activites that you can do; swan rides, kayaking, sightseeing boat cruise, etc. We went late fall, and unfortunately, most of the leaves were gone. It would have been perfect to see a mountain of fall leaves 🍂🍁 The lake is stunning tho 🤩🤩🤩 #nationalpark #nikko #tochigi #japan #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #awesomepic

Autumn Leaves in Nikko

I just went to Nikko from Asakusa station with Tobu Line. They offer discount pass about 2k yen for 2 days. By purchasing this pass, you don't need to pay anything anymore for the transportation that is affiliated to Tobu. We didn't use limited express so we needed to transfer train about 2 times by using local train. It took us 3-4h to arrive at our destination. It was so tiring but so worth it since my friend and I wanted to go somewhere outside Tokyo and watch Koyo (autumn leaves in Japanese). However we were a bit late so we couldn't see much there. If we came a week earlier it would be a perfect time to see koyo. It was still nice tho since we could taste Nikko's local foods, any kind of product from Yuuba (tofu's skin). #fallingforfall #nikko #japan
