Koyasan's Okunoin

I visited Okunoin in Koyasan, located in Wakayama Prefecture! Okunoin is a sacred site, so photography is not allowed inside. However, the atmosphere is truly unique, and I highly recommend experiencing it in person! As you walk along the path leading to Okunoin, you'll notice the increasing tranquility, which gives you a tangible sense of the sacredness of the place. If you ever visit Koyasan, why not take the time to explore Okunoin? 📍Location: 550 Koyasan, Koya Town, Ito District, Wakayama Prefecture, 648-0211
