Carvings of the Yōmeimon gate at the Nikko temple.

Nikko was born twice. For the first time in 766, when the monk Shodo Shonin founded his spiritual retreat in a magnificent pine forest. The site was then, and remained for nearly a millennium, one of the main places of Japanese Buddhism, with the sacred mountain of Koya-san. Its second birth was in 1636, when Japan, peaceful and prosperous, entered the golden age of Edo. The ruling family, the Tokugawa, had the mausoleum of Ieyasu, the great unifier of the Japanese archipelago, built there. Nikko thus became a symbol of Japanese syncretism, where Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines came together, and where the divine is all around.

The Shrines and Temples of Nikko form a single complex composed of one hundred three religious buildings within two Shinto shrines (The Tôshôgû and The Futarasan-jinja) and one Buddhist temple (The Rinnô-ji) located in an outstanding natural setting. The inscribed property is located in Tochigi Prefecture, in the northern part of Japan’s Kanto region. The religious buildings, many of which were constructed in the 17th century, are arranged on the mountain slopes so as to create different visual effects. The first buildings were constructed on the slopes of the sacred Nikko mountains by a Buddhist monk in the 8th century. Today, they testify to a centuries-old tradition of conservation and restoration as well as the preservation of religious practices linked to a site considered to be sacred. They are also closely associated with prominent chapters of Japanese history, especially those relating to the symbolic figure of the great Shogun, Tokugawa Ieyasu (1543-1616).

The unusual character of the property is the result of a combination of very important long-standing values: the 50.8-hectare property provides evidence of a long tradition of worship, a very high level of artistic achievement, and a striking alliance between architecture and the surrounding natural setting, and it serves as a repository of national memories.

Lamp detail of the Kumagaiji temple for pilgrims in Mount Koya. 

Mount Koya (高野山, Kōyasan) is the center of Shingon buddhism, an important Buddhist sect which was introduced to Japan in 805 by Kobo Daishi (also known as Kukai), one of Japan's most significant religious figures. A small, secluded temple town has developed around the sect's headquarters that Kobo Daishi built on Koyasan's wooded mountaintop. It is also the site of Kobo Daishi's mausoleum and the start and end point of the Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage.
