Shojin food seems to be a monotonous taste, but Hoon-in's Shojin food does not have a light taste, and it makes us feel the full taste of the vegetables.

By eating Shojin food you can feel your body and spirit purified.
Hoon-in responds to various allergies according to recent needs. For example, for gluten-free food use rice flour instead of wheat flour and also use organic soy sauce. Use grated radish organic soy sauce instead of miso and lemon juice instead of vinegar. The tempura pot also uses a pot for rice flour. Hoon-in's gluten-free food is not light and offers the same flavor and taste as ordinary Shojin dishes.
Allergic foods, such as gluten-free foods, need special preparation, so please make a reservation

How to get there

Koyasan is most conveniently accessed by Nankai Railway (as shown above) from Osaka’s Namba or Shin-Imamiya stations. Take the Nankai Koya Line from either station to the Gokurakubashi terminal station. A few limited express trains operate directly to Gokurakubashi (80 minutes, 1720 yen, every 1-3 hours). Otherwise take an express or rapid express train (100 minutes, 930 yen, every 20 - 30 minutes), most of which require a transfer at Hashimoto Station along the way.

At Gokurakubashi, transfer to the cable car which travels up the mountain to Koyasan. The ride takes about five minutes and costs 500 yen. From the top station, it is a ten-minute bus ride into the town center (300 yen to Senjuinbashi bus stop). Note that it is not permitted to walk along the street which connects the cable car station with the town center.

The temples of Koyasan form a small town on the wooded mountain, about 1000 meters above sea level. Most visitors arrive by cable car to Koyasan Station, which is a ten-minute bus or taxi ride from Koyasan's town center. Note that it is not permitted to walk along the street between the cable car station and the town center.
