Join a certified, local guide for a sacred night walk through Okunoin Cemetery. Discover a mystical and fantastical world, completely different from the daytime, as you listen to deep stories of Kobo Daishi Kukai and Esoteric Buddhism.On this tour, we will walk through the sacred Okunoin cemetery at night to pay our respects to the great master Kobo Daishi Kukai. After dinner, before you retire for the night… walking through Okunoin with a local Koyasan guide reveals a fantastical and mysterious world, completely different from what you see during the day. 【Our Philosophy】The “Koyasan Okunoin Night Tour” was started in 2011 by our founder, who began guiding visitors alone with a single passion: “I want people to experience the true, deep charm and silence of the Okunoin at night, safely.” For over 14 years since, we have been running this tour almost every single night.【What You'll Experience】The tour covers a wide range of topics, including the story of Kobo Daishi, an introduction to Shingon Esoteric Buddhism, explanations of the ancient tombstones, mysterious legends of Okunoin, life in a shukubo (temple lodging), and the history of Koyasan.

Koyasan is a sacred place of Shingon Esoteric Buddhism founded by Kobo Daishi Kukai 1200 years ago. The entire area of Mt. Koya is called ``Kongobu-ji, the head temple.'' In particular, ``Okunoin'' and ``Danjo Garan'' are two of the most sacred places of worship. We will guide you through spots such as Danjo Garan, Okunoin, Koyasan Shichibenten, etc. in the style of a trainee monk. It is also recommended that you experience training in the same way as the former Shugenja, and visit the legends related to Kukai. This experience work is recommended for those who want to learn more about Koyasan. Half day and full day courses are available.
1人旅、初めての高野山だったので1日コースでお願いしました。 始めに行きたいところはもちろんですが私の悩みなども聞いてくださり、それに合わせて1日のコースを組み立ていただきました。見どころが沢山ある高野山ですが、それよりも同行していただいた妙泉さんの優しさに心が軽く、穏やかになれました。素晴らしい体験をありがとうございました!
