    Do you know Koyasan Okuno-in? There are numerous cemeteries and memorial towers lined up toward the place where Kobo Daishi, the famous monk who founded Koyasan 1,000 years ago, is said to have continued his meditation to this day. These are an expression of the desire to sleep near the famous monk, and when you actually stand at the place, you will feel no sense of foreboding or dimness, only a quiet and sacred atmosphere. Numerous graves, including those of famous Japanese samurai, provide an opportunity to see what kind of people are being laid to rest. Imagine. Imagine the smell of moss and cedar trees, and a space of silence filled with fog. The only sounds are those of water and birds. Enjoy Japan's first sacred site with a local guide.
