"A longstanding retreat for European diplomats on holiday, Lake Chūzenji is a remote and spiritual escape located a few hours outside of Tokyo in Nikko National Park. The highest elevation lake in Japan, it’s marked by Mount Nantai, which rises out of the water; the picturesque Chūzenji Temple; and the famous fall foliage view along the hairpin roads that lead to the area." - Travel + Leisure Editors
