What other travelers are saying about Yōmeimon Gate
By far the nicest temple I’ve seen. Gorgeous! Very beautiful and inspiring. Very well kept and colourful. I love the fact that there are many buildings and temples all joint together. It gives the place a sense of being a city of some sort. Loved it! Highly recommended!!
Yomei Gate (A beautiful Gold & White gate 30 min walk from Nikko Station) just finished its restoration and in now open to the public. The brand new gold shining in the sky was magnificent!
