En bref
The public bath is built from 500-year-old Koya-maki wood, a type of podocarpus native to Mount Koya, making it one of the oldest wooden bathing structures in Japan.
The temple's main deity, Namikiri Fudo Myoo, was carved by Kobo Daishi himself from sacred sandalwood and is said to have saved him from drowning by calming violent waves during his return from China.

Plan to arrive by mid-afternoon since check-in starts at 15:00, and the monks will show you around the grounds and garden before dinner.
Book your temple stay well in advance, especially if you want to participate in the morning ceremony, as Nan-in has only 25 guest rooms and visitors report sometimes being the only guests on-site.
Request shakyo (sutra copying) in advance if you want to participate in this meditative practice in the tea ceremony room, as it requires a reservation and offers a hands-on way to engage with Buddhist spiritual practice during your stay.
Stand in the center of the main hall beneath the Roaring Dragon ceiling painting and clap your hands to hear the distinctive echo that gives the dragon its name.
Bring comfortable clothes you can easily change out of, as you'll want to soak in the onsen-style bath house after exploring the temple grounds, and the monks actively encourage guests to use this facility.
If you're not vegetarian, don't skip the shojin (Buddhist vegetarian) meals, as reviewers consistently praise them as amazing and exquisite, featuring seasonal ingredients, sesame tofu, and Koya-tofu prepared using centuries-old recipes passed down through the priesthood. The meals are included with your stay and are a core part of the temple experience.

Arrivez en début d'après-midi : l'enregistrement commence à 15 h, et les moines peuvent vous montrer les jardins et les terrains avant le dîner. Réservez bien à l'avance, particulièrement pour la cérémonie du matin, car Nan-in ne dispose que de 25 chambres d'hôtes.
Réservez le shakyo, ou la copie de sutras, à l'avance. Dans la salle de thé, il offre une pratique tranquille et participative. Dans la salle principale, tenez-vous sous la peinture du plafond du Dragon rugissant et frappez dans vos mains pour entendre son écho distinctif.
Apportez des vêtements faciles à enlever pour pouvoir utiliser le bain de style onsen après l'exploration. Restez pour les repas shojin inclus, même si vous mangez habituellement de la viande. Les plats saisonniers tels que le tofu de sésame et le Koya-tofu sont un point fort.
