We returned to Nikko after 15 years and it has grown. The natural aspects are still ( in my opinion) it's biggest attractions. The forest and watercourses have a serenity that compliments the temples and shrines. The variety of restaurants and cafes should satisfy most people and the quirky shops selling second hand clothing or souvenirs can be found strung alone the main road. The locals are friendly and willingly help with directions.

Shrine, lake and waterfall are all well worth the trip
Nikko Toshogu was very beautiful. There are quite a few steps to get to Okumiya photo, Tokugawa Ieyasu's tomb. There many ornately decorated buildings even if you can't make it all the way.
We also went to chuzenji lake and kogen falls. Both are pretty. Even if the weather is good in Tokyo, bring a coat it was much colder in Nikko.
