WAKAYAMA

“In the heart of rural Wakayama.”

Wakayama is a small and mostly rural prefecture near Osaka. Its main attraction is the Wakayama Castle which was first erected in 1585 on Mt. Torafusu. The castle grounds are popular cherry blossom viewing sites and its garden, Nishi-no-Maru, is popular for its autumn leaves. The prefecture is also popular for Mt. Koya which contains an area of 120 temples in a valley surrounded by several mountains. The temple complex contains several prehistoric, mossy monuments amidst lush and colossal trees.
