Tobu Railways covers the longest operating distance in the Kanto region, reaching from Metropolitan Tokyo north to Tochigi and Saitama prefectures. This region is home to a plethora of historical, cultural, natural, and seasonal tourist attractions. Visitors can stroll Edo-era towns in authentic kimono; take a canal boat ride beneath blossomed cherry trees; witness a 100-year-old annual fireworks display near an enormous flower park; hike through woodlands, take a pleasure boat cruise on Japan’s highest altitude lake during the pinnacle of fall foliage; enjoy winter sake and the light-up of trees and traditional buildings covered in snow.

Along the Tobu Railway lines, visitors embrace Tokyo’s Old and New in time-honored Asakusa and modern TOKYO SKYTREE TOWN. TOKYO SKYTREE, the world’s tallest free-standing broadcasting tower, is a beacon to the future, but it is also the departure point for a relaxing two-hour limited express train journey from Tokyo to the historic towns and countryside of Nikko and Kinugawa-Onsen. This area is often called Okunikko or “deep Nikko,” for its lush nature, waterfalls, hot springs, and outdoor adventure activities.
