Koya

Travel Guide

Mausoleums of Matsudaira Hide at Mt. Koya in Wakayama, Japan
 Western Stupa at Danjo Garan Temple in Mt. Koya, Wakayama, Japan
Tombstones at Okunoin Cemetery
The temples are incredibly beautiful in Koya-san, every single one of them is worth the visit #LifeAtExpedia
Walking through Japan's largest cemetery, Okunoin, in Koyasan is both beautiful and eerie. Recommend going both in daylight and at night.

Absolutely a superb experience here. The room was stunning and the food top notch. There is clearly so much care and attention here. It was lovely to be able to attend the morning ceremony as well. Highly recommend it. I'll be coming back for sure.

Beautiful hotel, the monks attending are really nice, definitely go to the morning ceremony, it is worth it. This is near everything and very centric to all the landmarks nearby.

沙發是壞掉的,廁所很冷,沒有電梯。餐具都是塑膠製品,不確定是否能用來微波,熱水壺的內膽是塑膠的,不確定是否能加熱,不敢用來煮水,怕喝下去的都是塑膠水。隔音很差,根本就睡不好,再次來訪臨空城的話,不會考慮住這間,設備跟離車站的距離都不優。
