The Calm of the Mountain Foothills, Alive in the Present
Near the ropeway station to Tairyūji Temple, deep in the mountains known as the “Western Kōya,” “Iyashi-tei KOKU” offers a stay steeped in the warmth of wood and the soothing embrace of a spacious bath featuring black silica stone. Inside, a relaxation room stocked with over 200 books, massage chairs, and even a ping-pong table invites both body and mind to unwind. The locally sourced cuisine reflects the blessings of the region, providing a gentle warmth that fits perfectly into the evening of your journey. True to its name, which means “a place to empty the heart and regain vitality,” this inn quietly lingers in the memories of many pilgrims who have passed through on their path.
