Wrapped in Mountain Maples: A Temple Lodging to Quietly Restore Your Journey
Nestled deep in the mountains of Saijō City, Ehime Prefecture, the Nishiyama Kōryūji Temple, a special-status head temple, has been a sacred site since the Heian period. The grounds are beautifully adorned with seasonal scenery, and the autumn foliage in particular is renowned as “the most spectacular in the Tōyo region.” The shukubō (temple lodging) is open only during the summer months and can accommodate up to around 50 guests by reservation. Guests are welcomed with mountain-vegetable-based shōjin ryōri and warm yudōfu (simmered tofu), providing gentle comfort to both body and mind. With a spacious free parking lot for 200 cars, this is an ideal retreat for travelers seeking to immerse themselves in history and tranquility. A stay here offers a special night steeped in silence, spirituality, and timeless natural beauty, perfectly suited to walkers seeking quiet restoration.
