A glimpse into the profound religious heritage of the area 🇯🇵

#japantrip Visiting Mount Koya is an exploration of both spiritual and historical treasures. In July 2004, numerous sites in Koyasan and its surrounding pilgrimage routes were designated as World Heritage Sites. This prestigious registration includes the Koya Sankei-michi and Choishi-michi routes, which lead pilgrims through serene landscapes to the sacred grounds. Among the recognized locations are six sites connected to the head Shingon temple, Kongobu-ji, and twelve other significant buildings within Koyasan. These historic and cultural landmarks offer a glimpse into the profound religious heritage of the area. Walking these ancient paths and visiting these revered sites, visitors are immersed in the timeless traditions and spiritual ambiance that define Mount Koya.
