Koyasan Shukubo Fugenin

Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt und alle waren sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Essen war gut. Alles in Allem hatten wir einen sehr guten Aufenthalt.

高齢の母と宿泊させていただきました。食事のときに椅子を態々準備していたいて、 　また朝の読経時も椅子が設置されており、館内も昇降機があるので、母親も心地よく滞在させていただきました。 　読経の後での院内を楽しくわかりやすい説明で案内していただき、地下の仏舎利を直接見ることができるのは、初めてだったので大変興味深かったです。 　母もとても喜んでおり、感謝いたいます。

Staying in the temple for two nights was the most amazing part of our two great weeks in Japan. We travelled with three adults and two kids (13 and 9 years). We had a very large double room, which was mesmerizingly beautiful in its simple japanese design. Air-condition was lovely during the hot summer season, worth mentioning when traveling with kids: the doors of the room etc. are literally from paper. We felt very welcome, also the kids. Communication in english was easy. The public bath was a pleasant experience, toilets were shared with other guests, clean and close by. Being able to participate the morning ceremony was an honour, and and impressing experience for the whole family. We went for a maybe 8km walk, north from the village uphill, on a forest street, entering the famous Koyasan cemetery from uphill, and it was super nice! Small important detail: when entering sacred areas, also the cemetary, you are expected to cover your shoulders, and of possible also your legs with appropriate clothing. If or when visiting Japan again we will be happy to visit Koyasan again.

Great location in the center of town so very convenient to visit the temples and cemetery.

Very beautiful place. The rooms are impeccable. The food was superb.
