Tochigi Prefecture is a landlocked gateway north of Tokyo where the UNESCO World Heritage shrines of Nikko rise beneath cedar forests, cool highland onsen resorts fill the Nasu plateau, and potters still throw Mashiko-yaki by hand — a prefecture of mountains, waterfalls, and craft traditions found nowhere else in the Kanto region.

Family travel tips
Practical advice for stress-free family trips.
Build downtime into every day — over-scheduled kids melt down faster than tired adults.
Carry snacks, water, and a small first-aid kit at all times.
Many attractions offer discounted family tickets — ask at the ticket window.
