“Lovely place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 November 2011

Our "room" was pretty, with a futon on the floor, table and tea-facilities. At 6 o'clock in the morning we attended the fire-cerimony with the monks, very impressive. Food is... More

Sleeping in a "Shukubo" (sort of monastery managed by buddist monks) was one of the highlights of our trip. It was freezing cold in Koyasan in January and our Shukubo was no exception. In the room was quite cold (but we slept well in our futon) but the rest of the place (bathrooms included) were litteraly frozen. The monks are... More
