The Largest Graveyard: Okunoin, Part II
Posted on 29 March 2012
Travel Date: 2 November 2010
Location: Okunoin, Mt Koya
So I came back to Okunoin (奥の院) again today, just because I love the place so much! Besides, I also came to look for some famous graves which I didn’t manage to find in the rain yesterday.
Date Masamune's (伊達政宗)
Oda Nobunaga's (織田信長)
7 stones
Twins! Or maybe not.
The perfect weather today makes the autumn foliage even more awesome to enjoy. Was extremely reluctant to leave here. :(
Still gorgeous. The red! The yellow!
Floor of ginkgo leaves! ♥
Lovely spread
Was great to be able to enjoy the autumn colours without much crowd too! :)
How To Get There
- It’s 5 min walk from Eko-in (恵光院). Should be very close to Ichi no Hashiguchi (一の橋口) bus stop.
