I went to Kongobu-ji Temple, one of the two major tourist spots in Mount Koya. It is a sacred place of Esoteric Shingon Buddhism founded by Kobo Daishi, and is also the head temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect. When I visited in mid-April, the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, making it the perfect place for a recommended cherry blossom viewing🌸 Admission fee: Junior high school students and above: 1,000 yen, elementary school students: 300 yen, preschoolers: free #trip2023 #MountKoya

I used the Nankai Koyasan Cable Car to go from Osaka to Mount Koya in Wakayama 🌟 Take the Nankai Koya Line from Namba to Gokuraku Station, then transfer to the Nankai Koyasan Cable Car to Koyasan Station. As we kept climbing the mountain, it felt quite chilly when we got off the cable car. It seems that the cherry blossoms bloom a little later than in Osaka. It was easier to access than I thought, so why not visit Mount Koya on your trip to Osaka?♬ #trip2023 #MountKoya

Wakayama is the capital of Wakayama Prefecture in the Kansai region. And here there are hundreds of years old temples that are still well preserved, including the old bark of trees and various resources around that are still impressively original when walking around. ✨#TravelAbroad #Japan #OsakaTrip #Wakayama #Onsen #AmusementPark #SleepAtABeautifulAccommodation #OldTemple

One of the best places to admire the autumn colors in Wakayama Prefecture is in the mountains of Koyasan. The best time to visit this place is late October until early November. Expect a crowd of tourist on this place so better go early to enjoy the experience. You can reach Koyasan from Gobo, Wakayama for about 1.5Hrs by car. Be ready with a cold weather since this place is situated in a mountain. More than the different colors of autumn leaves, you can enjoy the huge temples. It is said to be the home of 100 buddhist temples. #japanautumn

There are three famous sacred sites in Japan, and Koyasan in Wakayama Prefecture is the one with the most convenient transportation. Take the train from Nankai Railway Namba Station to Gokurakubashi, transfer to the cable car to Koyasan Station, and then take the bus to Kongobuji Temple, Okunoin Temple and other areas. Because "Oku-no-in" is far from the station, the recommended order of visiting is to go to "Oku-no-in" first and then go to "Kongobuji" on the return trip. Although it is quite far, the bus ride only takes about 15 to 20 minutes. Get off at "Oku-no-in-mae", where there are roads and restaurants next to it, but as you walk into "Oku-no-in" along the road, it becomes very quiet and solemn, because there are many tombstones here, and many towering cedar trees, some of which are more than 600 years old. In addition, there are tombs of Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi family among the tombstones. Although Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi are not actually buried here, it is also worth a visit. At the bottom of "Oku-no-in" is the Kobo Daishi Shrine, but taking photos there is prohibited. It took about two and a half hours to walk through "Oku-no-in" slowly, and then you can take the bus back to "Senju-in Bridge" or "Kongobuji-mae" to visit another area of ​​Koyasan. Kongobuji Temple is beautifully built and has a peaceful atmosphere, but it feels different from Oku-no-in Temple in that it feels like a Japanese garden. To visit the interior of Kongobuji Temple, you need to buy an additional ticket. There are also places for visitors to rest and drink tea in the temple. In addition, there are many temples on Koyasan that are open to tourists for accommodation, and you can also participate in the temple's morning classes, which is also a very special experience. The white snow in winter and the fact that it is an important religious site make it a very cleansing place for the soul. Some people may be a little taboo about cemeteries, but in fact, Koyasan is also a very popular tourist destination for Japanese people. Whether or not you have visited a sacred site before, I recommend visiting Koyasan and feeling the atmosphere there. #日本景点 #国外旅游 #日本 #和歌山県 #高野山 #聖場 #聖宮聖 #楊靈心 #japan

A temple is a sacred and solemn place where monks copy scriptures and worship Buddha every day to pray for blessings and ward off disasters for the world and themselves. Every time I enter an ancient temple, I am always assimilated by its solemn atmosphere. Many times, we only spend an hour or two visiting these temples, but it still makes us feel calmer. What would it feel like if you could stay longer? "Koyasan" is located in the northern part of Wakayama Prefecture and is a holy place for Japanese Buddhism. To facilitate believers and tourists to visit, many temples have also converted part of their space into accommodation facilities, allowing people to stay for a few days and have more time to experience it. Even if you are not a Buddhist, you can still treat it as a religious experience, which is fun. One of the temples with a rich historical background that provides accommodation is Bekke Honzan Soji-in in Koyasan. 📍 Address: 143 Koyasan, Koya-cho, Ito-gun, Wakayama Prefecture 648-0296 🏘 A total of 13 Japanese-style tatami rooms ♨️ There is a large bath in the temple 🍱 Provide vegetarian meals mainly based on wild vegetables 🚈 You can drive via National Highway 480, or take a bus from Shin-Osaka or Haneda Station. The bus takes about 4 hours. The entire Koyasan is filled with a tranquil atmosphere, and Soji-in Temple is located to the west of Kinkobone-ji Temple, with a majestic altar in front of the gate. The rooms are well designed and offer beautiful views. If you can get up early, you can also experience morning prayers and copy scriptures. It is a great experience to relax your mind under the bells of the mountain temple. #Overseas Travel #Japan #Countryside Series #Koyasan #Temple #Souji-in Temple #One Night and Two Meals #Deep in the Mountains #Buddhism #japan

Mount Koya is located in Koyacho, Wakayama Prefecture. The red-roofed temple is impressive! Because it is the head temple, there are graves of many different people. There are graves of shoguns and graves named after large companies such as Panasonic and Komatsu. Also, since it is located on high ground, the air is very clear and you can really feel like you are in Japan! #Shrine #Snowscape #FreeSpot

Kongobu-ji Temple is the head temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect in the northern part of Wakayama Prefecture. The altitude is 800m, which is a little high. This area is also a summer resort, and many Buddhist facilities are lined up in the rich nature. The first photo is a road called "Jabara-michi", which is also a famous spot for autumn leaves. It was taken in the summer, but the trees were colored and it was very beautiful ✨ During the autumn leaves season 🍁, it is apparently lit up at night...! The second photo is the largest rock garden in Japan, "Banryutei" ♪ Access: About 15 minutes by bus from "Koyasan Station" on the Koyasan Cable Car. #Wakayama #Garden #Forest bathing #Summer resort you want to keep secret #Breathtaking view

It's been a while since I've written about Mount Koya. Because of its high altitude, it's actually cool even in summer, making it a great summer resort♪ When I visited, it was August, and it was a scorching hot time on the plains, but Mount Koya was cool. Some people even felt cold in short sleeves. Mount Koya has many Buddhist buildings, such as Kongobu-ji Temple and the Konpon Daito Pagoda, and there are also shops and accommodation facilities for tourists. Of course, there is a lot of nature, including greenery🌱The yellow-green trees and bamboo groves looked like fresh greenery. Access: 15 minutes by bus from Koyasan Station on the Koyasan Cable Car (bus to Daimon) #Secret summer resort #Wakayama #Forest bathing #Support tourism #Support tourism #Breathtaking views

Mount Koya in Wakayama Prefecture. It is a basin with an altitude of 800m and surrounded by mountains of 1000m. It is a religious city built by Kukai, who introduced Buddhism to Japan in the Heian period along with Saicho of the Tendai sect, and is considered a holy place of the Shingon sect. The whole area is registered as a World Heritage Site✨ There are many things to see, such as the Great Pagoda and the rock garden! Even if you spend a whole day, it's a pain to see everything lol This photo was taken in August♫ It seems that snow accumulates in winter and the autumn leaves are beautiful. It is also famous as a flower spot, with rhododendrons, cherry blossoms in spring, and hydrangeas in early summer. Access: Get off at Gokurakubashi Station on the Nankai Electric Railway, and then take the Koyasan Cable Car to Koyasan Station.

On our recent trip to Japan we visited a number of busy cities and we wanted to have a couple of days out and Mount Koya was a great choice. It took us a couple of hours and a number of train rides to get there but it was absolutely worth it. A very tranquil little town Koyasan was set among centuries old pine forests and the quiet Buddhist temples and serene setting was just what we needed to take a break from the neon lights. All the notable sights are within walking distance and the air is so clear you would be silly not to take leisurely strolls around the parks and the beautiful Okunoin cemetery. A tourist office in the heart of town can provide you more information on the sights and important events. This is one of the most spiritual places in Japan. Not yet part of the standard tourist trip in Japan but it’s worth a visit. I suggest to sleep in a temple to really feel the atmosphere of the place. #givethanks #givethanks

The small mountaintop Buddhist community of Mount Koya (Koyasan) is one of Japan’s most magical, if increasingly popular, destinations and the perfect place to spend a night at a Buddhist temple in shukubo temple lodgings. Located in a remote wooded area of Wakayama Prefecture, south of Kyoto and Osaka, Koyasan (as it is called in Japanese) is the headquarters of the Shingon school of Buddhism, and home to more than 100 temples and monasteries.

Mount Koyasan is a magical place, high in the mountains about 2 hours by train from Osaka. It is the “headquarters” of Shinto Buddhism, which gives it a very peaceful atmosphere. You can sleep in a local temple and enjoy a vegetarian meal, see the photo for a feel of how many different dishes. Tip: after dinner take a walk through town, even more serene and in my opinion an unforgettable experience.

🏖️Overview Koyasan is a mountain with an altitude of about 800m in Koyacho, Ito District, Wakayama Prefecture🍊, and Kongobu-ji Temple, located there, is the head temple of the Shingon sect. It was built by Kukai (Kobo Daishi) in the early Heian period, and many cultural assets and historical sites remain, and many monks👨🦲 still train there today. In 2004, it was registered as a World Heritage Site under the name "Sacred Sites and Pilgrimage Routes in the Kii Mountain Range". 💞Reasons why we recommend it: Get off at Gakubunji Station on the Nankai Electric Railway🚆 and start climbing🚶. We passed the historic Jizo statues and temple swastikas, and stopped at the remains of a wooden elementary school🏫. It's very quaint and a recommended place to have lunch🍙. After that, we crossed Gokuraku Bridge and continued climbing😅. And then we arrived. Within the temple grounds, there are many buildings that exude a sense of history in a tranquil atmosphere. We also enjoyed a leisurely stroll through the beautiful gardens. As expected, many foreign tourists visit the temple. 📍Location: 132 Koyasan, Koya-cho, Ito-gun, Wakayama Prefecture 📍Access: 🚆Get off at Koyasan Station on the Nankai Koya Line 🚌Take the Nankai Bus to Daimon and get off at the Honzan-mae bus stop. About 10 minutes. #Koyasan #Kongobuji #Kukai #Gokurakubashi #Domestic Travel Strategy

After a few whirlwind days in the city—arms full of shopping bags, hearts buzzing with neon lights, and feet sore from endless walking—it’s easy to forget what silence feels like. That’s exactly why we took a day trip to Koyasan (Mount Koya), and honestly… it felt like coming home. 💗 Whether you’re traveling with little ones, your partner, or just your own busy thoughts, Koyasan offers something rare in today’s world: stillness. 🌄 6:00 AM – Leaving the City Behind We left Osaka bright and early, catching the Nankai Koya Line from Namba Station. The train slowly trades cityscapes for mountain mist, and just like that, the noise begins to fade. Even the kids, usually glued to screens, were quietly gazing out the window. It’s a beautiful ride, winding through cedar forests and sleepy mountain towns. 🚞🌲 Tip: Take the Limited Express “Koya” if you’re with family—it’s comfy and has big windows perfect for enjoying the view. 🛕 9:00 AM – Entering Sacred Ground Arriving at Gokurakubashi Station, we transferred to a cable car that climbs steeply into the clouds. The moment we stepped onto Koyasan, something shifted. The air was cool and fragrant with pine. The kids whispered without being told. It felt like we were walking into a temple of nature itself. 🍃 Our first stop? The majestic Kongobuji Temple. With its tranquil rock gardens and golden sliding doors, it was like stepping into a living painting. Even our youngest was mesmerized by the way the raked gravel flowed like waves. 🪨🌊 🧘♂️ 11:30 AM – Mindful Moments at Okunoin Next, we took a quiet walk through Okunoin, one of Japan’s most sacred cemeteries. Now, I know what you’re thinking—“A cemetery? With kids?” But hear me out. This isn’t a spooky place. It’s a forest of towering cedar trees, mossy lanterns, and ancient gravestones that whisper stories of monks, samurai, and poets. We walked hand in hand, occasionally stopping to read inscriptions or just breathe. My partner and I exchanged glances—it’s been a while since we felt this connected. 💞 Pro tip: Teach your kids to bow slightly at the Kobo Daishi’s mausoleum. It’s a beautiful way to show respect. 🍱 1:00 PM – A Simple Temple Lunch We had a shojin ryori (Buddhist vegetarian meal) at a nearby temple lodging. No fancy sauces, no fries—just tofu, mountain vegetables, and miso soup. But oh, how deeply satisfying it was! Our kids even said it was “weirdly yummy.” 😋🥢 Eating slowly, gratefully, in silence—something shifted inside all of us. 🛍️ 2:30 PM – Slowing Down with Souvenirs Before heading back, we stopped by a little family-run shop selling handmade prayer beads and incense. Each item felt meaningful, crafted with care. We picked out a set of beads for our home—a reminder that peace is something we can take with us. 🧿 🌅 4:00 PM – Heading Home, Hearts Full As we descended the mountain, there was a kind of quiet contentment among us…

#0yentravelFebruary2025 I went to Danjogaran in Wakayama Prefecture! Danjogaran was the first place that Kukai developed when he founded Mount Koya. You can also take a look inside, so that's also recommended! If you go in the winter, you can see the beautiful red gate in the snowy scenery. It's also very close to Kongobu-ji Temple, the head temple of the Shingon sect! If you go to Mount Koya, why not visit Danjogaran? ? 📍Address: 152 Koyasan, Koya-cho, Ito-gun, Wakayama Prefecture 648-0211
