My favorite stop of all in Japan was the beautiful mountaintop town of Koyasan. We attended morning prayers with Buddhist monks, slept in a capsule hotel and visited our first onsen. Then we caught the bullet train to Hiroshima to visit the Peace Memorial and Miyajima Island. Photos taken with a Canon 5D Mark III. OneWorldOneYear.com exploring the temples of Koyasan, Japan.
