Introduction
The Italian Embassy Villa Memorial Park sits by Lake Chuzenji in Nikko, reconstructing the early-20th-century summer villa of the Italian ambassador to Japan. The red-brick and stone Italianate building stands by the lake; from the garden you take in the water and mountains — an elegant remnant of Nikko's 'diplomats' summer retreat' history.
