On Saturday, June 19, 2015, a good friend of mine and I went to Koya-san near Wakayama City, Japan. It took us almost 3 hours by car to get there, but the whole trip was totally worth it! Mount Koya is primarily known as the world headquarters of the Koyasan Shingon sect of Japanese Buddhism. In 2004, Mount Koya was added to UNESCO World Heritage List as one of three sacred sites in Japan’s Kii Mountain Range.
