概览
The temple earned the nickname 'women's Koyasan' because it welcomed female worshippers during an era when the famous Mt. Koya monastery banned women entirely. Today, about 80% of its visitors are still women.
Mount Muro's caves were believed to be carved by a dragon deity named Zennyo Ryuo. The imperial court once traveled here to pray for rain and good harvests, trusting the dragon spirit to bring storms.

The mountains around Muro-ji served as secret training grounds for Iga ninja, who used the remote, forested terrain to practice their skills away from prying eyes alongside the temple's mountain ascetics.
Muro-ji's five-story pagoda is the smallest outdoor pagoda in Japan, dating to the 9th century. It survived 1,000 years only to be damaged by a typhoon in 1998, then fully restored two years later.
