[2024 Koya Attraction] Travel Guide for Koyasan (Updated Dec)

Fall Breeze and Autumn Leaves in Japan

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

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.

DAY 35: After completing the pilgrimage to the 88 sacred sites of Shikoku, this morning we head to Toji Temple in Kyoto, and in the afternoon, we visit Kongobuji Temple in Mount Koya, marking the end of the pilgrimage to the three major sacred sites of Kobo Daishi. The five-story pagoda, standing at 55 meters, is the tallest wooden structure in Japan. On the west side, the 'Lotus Gate' is said to be where Kobo Daishi, in his later years, left Toji Temple for seclusion in Mount Koya. It is believed that Fudo Myo-o, feeling deep regret, appeared at this gate to bid farewell. With each step Daishi took, lotus flowers bloomed, and Fudo Myo-o tearfully watched him until he disappeared from sight. Daishi spent the rest of his life in Mount Koya and never returned to Toji Temple, attaining Buddhahood in Okunoin. Additionally, the 'Treasure House' (an important cultural property) by the lotus pond is a warehouse that stores esoteric Buddhist implements and precious scriptures. It is said that Ishikawa Goemon, the greatest thief in history, once attempted to steal from it but failed. Mount Koya was founded by Kobo Daishi in 816 AD, with Kongobuji Temple being the head temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect. It includes two major sacred sites: Okunoin and Danjo Garan. In the deepest part of Okunoin is the mausoleum (a place where great figures are enshrined), where people believe Daishi still lives, continuously praying and meditating for world peace and human happiness. For 1200 years, a meal offering ceremony has been held twice daily without interruption. Along the 2-kilometer pilgrimage path to the mausoleum, there are 700-year-old cedar trees and over 200,000 tombstones and memorial tablets of people from all walks of life, including famous warlords from the Sengoku period like Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Oda Nobunaga.

Mount Koyasan, Japan

In August we visited the sacred mountain Koyasan - an interesting and very mysterious place! There are several ways to get here: 🔸Buy an excursion and go with a guide, by the way, excursions can be bought on Trip.com. 🔸Go on your own and pay for everything in cash or with a transport card. 🔸The option we chose - we bought a Koyasan heritage pass, which covers the road in both directions and gives unlimited travel for two days on buses running on Mount Koyasan. We visited the Okunoin cemetery, about which I cannot write anything, I just ask you to try to soak up the atmosphere of this place, and best of all, come here yourself! #koyasan #okunoin #japan #japantrip

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

Mount Koya in Japan | The place where Master Kukai lectured, the largest dry landscape garden in Japan

Kongobuji Temple, is one of the must-see places in Mount Koya. ❤Recommended reasons: 🌟Kukai founded the Shingon sect in Mount Koya, and Kongobuji Temple is the head temple of the Shingon sect and the place where Master Kukai lectured. 🌟Unlike the common temples full of gods and Buddhas, there are no Buddha statues in the few halls open to the public in Kongobuji Temple, but the layered screens in several rooms are impressive. 🌟These paintings by the monk Kano Tan'yu, whether they are detailed flowers and birds or freehand landscapes, cherry blossoms and peonies in spring, stream maple leaves in autumn, are full of magic that lights up people's hearts in an instant. 🗾Banryutei ✅Passing through the corridor, you will pass a beautiful courtyard. On the ground of the courtyard, like the dry landscape of Renjo-in, a large 'A' is written. ✅The Shingon sect belongs to the Eastern Esoteric Buddhism, and its doctrinal point is that all phenomena in the universe return to 'A'. ✅'A' is the absolute entity of all dharmas, neither born nor destroyed, neither dirty nor clean, neither increasing nor decreasing. ✅Looking at the 'A' character and contemplating the heart is the contemplation of the Bodhi mind in the Shingon sect. 🙏Highlights: 🌟At the end of the building is the kitchen operation room of the temple, etc. 🌟From the outside to the inside, all are open for people to visit, conveying the scene of Kukai's teaching and living here. 🚌Transportation: Take the Nankai Rinkan bus from Nankai Koyasan Station and get off at 'Kongobuji-mae' ⏰Opening hours 8:30-17:00 💰Ticket price 500JPY
