If you’re after a day-trip destination, we know just the place. Situated 40 miles away, Tenkawa is worth jumping in the car for. Tenkawa Daibenzai Tensha, Tenkawamura Dorogawa Eco Museum and Dorogawa Onsen alone justify the drive. The locals will also likely point you toward Koya, 45 miles away. If you only have time for one attraction here, let it be Mount Koyasan. (But we’d also recommend Kongobuji Temple and Okunoin.)
