Since its establishment by Kobo Daishi Kukai during the Heian period, Mount Koya has transcended all sects and continued to nurture its history as the general bodhi site of Japan. Located in front of the Seven Halls of the Great Temple Complex, adjacent to the head temple Kongobuji to the east, and backed by the mountain of Prince Kakuhou's Mausoleum, the special-status temple "Mount Koya Special-Status Temple Soujiji" is an ancient temple blessed with excellent Facilities and a grand garden. The guest rooms, set amidst the beautiful garden, are equipped with air conditioning and heating, offering a refreshing and serene atmosphere. Warmth in the severe cold, natural coolness in the summer—no matter the season, you are sure to enjoy a comfortable stay.

This property features three gardens designed by Mirei Shigemori, one of which is the first garden created in Koyasan and designated as a national registered monument. Each garden represents the abundant water of Koyasan, with the water flow connecting the three gardens. You can leisurely enjoy the seasonal beauty of these gardens.

Among the many lodgings in Koyasan, ours is the only Property that preserves both a National Treasure and a World Heritage site. Within our grounds, you will find historic landmarks such as the National Treasure Tahoto Pagoda, the Important Cultural Property Sutra Repository, the Main Hall, and the Shisho Myojin Shrine.
