Koyasan Japan

Koyasan, located in the Wakayama prefecture of Japan, is a destination that will transport you to a world of peace and tranquility. This small town is nestled in the mountains and is known for its rich history and culture. One of the main attractions is the Buddhist temple complex, which is home to over 100 temples.
