Description
Danjo Garan is one of the most important religious sites in all of Japan. This monastic complex was built by Kobo Daishi Kukai, the founder of Shingon Buddhism. For centuries, this temple complex has remained a place of learning and teaching. It’s also a place of pilgrimage for monks to pay their respects to Kukai, posthumously named Kobo Daishi, whose spirit lives on in Okunoin Cemetery.
