A Journey Through Mount Koya's Sacred Sanctuary
SHIMOKOSAWA, JAPAN - JUNE 13: A sprawling panoramic view reveals a traditional rural settlement perched across terraced mountain slopes near Shimokosawa, Kudoyama-cho, Ito District, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan, on June 13, 2026. This steep valley settlement along the Nankai Koya Line railway corridor serves as the historical gateway and trailhead for the ancient Choishi-michi pilgrimage route up to Mount Koya (Koyasan), preserving traditional Japanese mountainside architecture featuring tiled roofs and terraced foundations.
