Toshugu Shrine
The Toshugu Shrine was founded in 1617 by the Tokugawa Shogunate. In its current incarnation, it is comprised of 42 structures, five of which are national treasures of Japan and three being important cultural properties.
Together with Futarasan and Rinno-ji it forms the Nikko UNESCO world heritage site.
Yuzen-Dyed cut velvet
Originally invented for the export market by Nishimura Sozaemon in around 1868, this interesting technique uses velvet which is painted with dye to create an image. It is then steamed and the threads in some areas are cut back to enhance the depth and perspective of the picture.
