宿坊Shukubō (temple lodging)

A shukubo (宿坊) is a temple lodging in Japan that allows visitors to stay overnight within a Buddhist temple. Originally these facilities were designed to accommodate only monks and worshippers, but nowadays, in response to declining numbers of monk visitors, most facilities accept general tourists. Some temples, such as the ones in Mount Kōya, have open-air baths with onsen. Shukubo are now considered semi-secularized and in many towns are the only accommodations available.
