Book your temple stay well in advance if you want to participate in the morning Buddhist ceremony (6:30 AM year-round) and meditation, as the temple accommodates up to 250 guests but fills quickly during peak seasons.
En bref
The Tahōtō pagoda, built in 1223, is the oldest structure on Mount Kōya and contains a remarkable relic: strands of Minamoto no Yoritomo's hair wrapped around the central Buddha statue.
Hōjō Masako founded this temple in 1211 to honor her late husband, then rebuilt its pagoda in 1223 after their son was assassinated to commemorate him too.

Book your temple stay well in advance if you want to participate in the morning Buddhist ceremony (6:30 AM year-round) and meditation, as the temple accommodates up to 250 guests but fills quickly during peak seasons.
Plan to walk the temple grounds slowly to appreciate the six ancient cedar trees, each several hundred years old, which create a solemn atmosphere that reflects the temple's 800-year history.
The temple is located approximately 4 km from Gokurakubashi train station and 4.8 km from Koyasan Station, with free private parking available on the grounds.
Participate in sutra copying or Ajikan meditation if offered during your stay, as these hands-on practices connect you directly to the temple's Shingon Buddhist traditions.

Réservez votre séjour au temple bien à l'avance, en particulier pendant les périodes de pointe. Les clients en séjour peuvent participer à la cérémonie bouddhiste du matin à 6h30 toute l'année, ainsi qu'à la méditation. Le temple se trouve à environ 4 km de la gare de Gokurakubashi et à 4,8 km de la gare de Koyasan, avec un parking privé gratuit sur place.
Prenez le temps de parcourir lentement les terrains et de voir six anciens cèdres, chacun ayant plusieurs centaines d'années, qui correspondent à l'atmosphère solennelle et à l'histoire de 800 ans du temple. Si disponible pendant votre séjour, essayez la copie de sutras ou la méditation Ajikan pour une introduction pratique à la pratique bouddhiste Shingon.
