Exploring Okunikko, an easy day trip from Tokyo
When my daughter and I visited Japan earlier this fall, we hightailed it to Nikko, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Nikko is great and all, but Okunikko, the mountain region of this town is what captured our heart. It's filled with amazing hot springs, lovely hikes and some of the best Japanese food I've ever eaten. Here's a look at our highlights.
