A special place

#japantrip Koyasan has become a staple on my Osaka holidays. I get the nankai electric day pass specially for koyasan and it is all worth it. Make sure you get an early start because the train travel takes well above and hour each way. To tell you about the place. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, covered with many temples. Also home to Japan’s largest cemetery, the Okunoin Cemetery. Not just any normal cemetery, a moss-lined pathway in the forest leads to the mausoleum and the final resting place of Kobo Daishi. There are even a temple stay option, but I am mostly in favour of a day trip. Having said so, many people recommend the stay. What I love so much is the trails and sights during different seasons. I think autumn is the most beautiful time to visit koyasan. #japantrip #cherryblossom2024 #templestay #koyasan
