This body of water in Nikko is well-liked by many travelers, so put it on your schedule. However, don't end your sightseeing there. There are many more options ready for you to enjoy after Lake Chūzenji. Nikko Yumoto Ski Area, Kegon Falls, and Nikko National Park are close by.

Everything was great. You need to ask the staff to help with bags otherwise it is not offered. But upon asking they were helpful. There were steep stairs to my room. Carrying a bag up was hard but I didn’t want to hurt myself trying to carry them down.
