Mount Kōya is a mountain in Wakayama prefecture to the east of Osaka in Japan.

The village of Koyasan lies on this mountain.

Surrounded by a thick forest of massive cedars, the area known as Okuno-in, or the Inner Sanctuary, is the setting for a vast mossy cemetery that features more than 200,000 grave stones – from military commanders to the common folk.
