What is a Ryokan? Ryokans are the best way to experience Japanese culture and enjoy the true comforts of Japanese hospitality and service.
Hot springs have a very long history in Japan, and they are an intimate part of Japanese culture. There are over 3,000 "onsen" ,or hot springs, in Japan. Many can be found at the ryokans available on Japanese Guest Houses.
From JR Shin-Osaka or JR Osaka train station, take the Midosuji subway line to Namba subway station, about a 15 minute subway ride. From Namba take the the Nankai Line to Koyasan. In Gokurakubashi you change to the Cable Car, which goes to Koyasan Station. From there you can take a bus to Koyasan. At the cable car station, ask for "A Guide to Koyasan" (the English map of Mt Koya) and you will see Muryoko-in. It is about a 20 minute bus ride and the closest bus stop is Koyasan Keisatsumae Bus Stop (the Koyasan Police Station). From the bus stop you go straight to the next traffic light. There you go right and Muryoko-in is around 100 meters further on the left side.
