There are over one hundred temples on Mt. Koya and about half of them are Shukubo where you can stay overnight. Most of these Shukubo cost around 9,500yen per person per night including dinner and breakfast. The food there is Shojin Ryori, which is vegetarian meals that monks enjoy, and at most of shukubo, guests are able to enjoy morning pray at 6am. It takes about 100mins, catching two trains from Osaka (Nankai line, Namba Station). For more information, please visit the website of Koyasan Tourist Association which offers area guides as well as a list of Temple lodges.
