Koyasan Cable Car 高野山

Mount Koya (高野山, Kōyasan) is the center of Shingon Buddhism, an important Buddhist sect which was introduced to Japan in 805 by Kobo Daishi (also known as Kukai), one of Japan's most significant religious figures. A small, secluded temple town has developed around the sect's headquarters that Kobo Daishi built on Koyasan's wooded mountaintop. It is also the site of Kobo Daishi's mausoleum and the start and end point of the Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage. Sede central de la rama budista shingon, la montaña sagrada de Koya o Koyasan (高野山), es una experiencia increíble para cualquier turista que visita el país del sol naciente. Localizada en la prefectura de Wakayama, a unos 1000 metros sobre el nivel del mar, la zona fue declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad en 200
