Later, it became popular to make a pilgrimage, along a route around the island, visiting all of the temples. This pilgrimage is known as ohenro, and the pilgrims are called ohenro-san. This week on Journeys in Japan, Bene sets out on the first stage of her pilgrimage in Tokushima Prefecture.

Shikoku Island - Japan
Shikoku is the smallest (225 km long and between 50 and 150 km wide) and least populous (4141955 as of 2005) of the four main islands of Japan, located south of Honshū and east of the island of Kyūshū. Its ancient names include Iyo-no-futana-shima (伊予之二名島), Iyo-shima (伊予島), and Futana-shima (二名島). The current name refers to the four former provinces which made up the island: Awa, Tosa, Sanuki, and Iyo.Geography The Shikoku region, comprising Shikoku and its surrounding islets, covers about 18800 square kilometres (7259 sq mi) and consists of four prefectures: Ehime, Kagawa, Kōchi, and Tokushima. Across the Inland Sea lie Wakayama, Osaka, Hyōgo, Okayama, Hiroshima, and Yamaguchi Prefectures on Honshū. To the west lie Ōita and Miyazaki Prefectures on Kyūshū. The 50th largest island by area in the world, Shikoku is smaller than Sardinia and Bananal, but larger than Halmahera and Seram. By population, it ranks 23rd, having fewer inhabitants than Sicily or Singapore, but more than Puerto Rico or Negros. Mountains running east and west divide Shikoku into a narrow northern subregion, fronting on the Inland Sea, and a southern part facing the Pacific Ocean. Most of the 4.5 million inhabitants live in the north, and all but one of the island's few larger cites are located there. Mount Ishizuchi (石鎚山) in Ehime at 1982 m (6503 ft) is the highest mountain on the island. Industry is moderately well developed and includes the processing of ores from the important Besshi ...

Shikoku 88 Temples, Japan: Part 1, The Path
1200 km (more like 1400 km if you count a lot of wrong turns), 50 days, 4 prefectures, one typhoon, numerous blisters, human interactions and unforgettable discoveries; walking around Japan's fourth largest island of Shikoku on a visit to 88 temples was a once in a lifetime experience that I can't wait to repeat.

Journeys in Japan - Ohenro Shikoku Pilgrimage Part 5
Part 5. "OHENRO Shikoku Pilgrimage Part 2: Kochi - Pref." - Mikurodo Cave - Copying sutras - Cooking with inn owner 1200 years ago, the Buddhist saint Kukai (also known as Kobo Daishi) established 88 temples in Shikoku. Later, it became popular to make a pilgrimage, along a route around the island, visiting all of the temples. This pilgrimage is known as ohenro, and the pilgrims are called ohenro-san. This week on Journeys in Japan, Bene continues on the second stage of her pilgrimage, through Kochi Prefecture. The trail is hard, and covers a distance of about 350 km. Bene visits a cave on Cape Muroto where the young priest Kukai meditated and achieved enlightenment. Bene continues to Kochi City, visiting a temple where she experiences the spiritual discipline of copying sutras by hand. She encounters many people along the route, including other pilgrims. In Kuroshio Town, she stays the night at a homestay-style inn, and establishes a deep connection with the couple who run the inn. Mikurodo Cave This cave is where the Buddhist Priest Kukai achieved spiritual enlightenment, about 1200 years ago. It is said that he took the name Kukai, which literally means "Sky Sea" because that is all he could see while he was meditating. Temple 31: Chikurin-ji This temple lies about 6 kilometers from the center of Kochi City. Its principal image is the bodhisattva of wisdom. Visitors can experience shakyo, the religious discipline of copying Buddhist sutras by hand. (Cost 1500 yen ...
