Most of us hope for a full week of sunshine when we are out traveling. But it doesn't alway happen that way. I recently spent a weekend in Nikko and it rained almost the whole time. But guess what? It was beautful! In this short series, I'd like to share the beauty of Nikko with you--in the rain. This story focuses on some of the large fields and marshlands in Nikko: Senjogahara and Odajirogahara. They are wide and vast, and on this day quite misty--a special atmoshphere not seen on sunny days!

Nikko's Beautiful Fields
Nikko on a Rainy Day - 5

The mist adds an element of beauty not found on sunny days

The fields are vast and green

There are some places to stop and rest and enjoy the view

I was pleased to find plenty of my favorite tree, the white birch

These fields have been enjoyed by the locals and visitors for hundreds of years

More beautiful in the rain!

The mountains behind the fields were swallowed up in the mist
