Koyasan Mountain Town Experience

“If you're looking for an unforgettable mountain town experience, add a couple of days in Koyasan to your itinerary. It's about a six-hour train journey from Tokyo, including the cable car, but only a few hours to get to Kyoto after.”

Japan's largest cemetery, home to over 200,000 monks' graves. It's a truly cool and atmospheric place, surrounded by massive cedar trees and moss-covered tombstones, with fog often adding to the ambiance.

Stay overnight at a Buddhist temple
For an unforgettable experience, stay overnight at a Buddhist temple in Koyasan. We loved our stay at Fudo-in, where the grounds were so peaceful. Meals are included and are all vegetarian, but the dinner here was one of our favorite meals of the entire trip. You also get to attend morning ceremonies and guided meditations.
