Discovering an ancient Buddhist monastery, hidden away in the woods

Here are some pictures from my visit to Koya-san, a tiny ancient Buddhist town, hidden in the woods a couple of hours from Osaka.

The extremely steep cable car that took us up the mountain. 

Making friends... 

Apart from the monks, nobody else was rocking flip flops/jandals/thongs (delete as appropriate). Trust the Englishman.
