Eddie PApril 18, 2018Worth visiting twice – once during daylight and once in the dark. It becomes a totally different experience. But don't be an ass and take pictures where you're not supposed to.

Massara Nati …October 5, 2013【世界文化遺産】奥の院は、一の橋から弘法大師空海が眠る御廟までの約２キロほどの浄域・聖域で、僧侶だけでなく参拝者は弘法大師に空海に会う前に際し、必ずここで身心を整え一礼して入場します。 一の橋から奥の院までの参道の両側には何百年もの時を経た老杉がそびえ立ち、幻想的かつ神秘的な荘厳さを身をもって体感できます。 御廟の橋を渡るとより聖域となり、写真撮影はおろか脱帽しなければなりません。Upvoted Feb 14

"Simply stunning. Would've loved to take the night tour, but didn't have time."
Aja Brandman 
"Beautiful Koyasan, fantastic scenery and temples, and if you're staying at one of the temple lodgings (shukubo) like at Shojoshin you can also enjoy the great, vegi, Japanese monk's cuisine."
