Overview |
Founded nearly 1,250 years ago, Nikko has since been revered as a holy place. A mausoleum was built in the early Edo period (1603-1867) to commemorate the great deeds of Ieyasu Tokugawa and Nikko has remained a sacred site to this day. The construction of Toshogu Shrine was completed in 1636 after just one and a half years. In a manner similar to factory production and on-site assembly seen today, components were crafted in Edo and then transported to Nikko as finished products for assembly.
