DAY 35: After completing the pilgrimage to the 88 sacred sites of Shikoku, this morning we head to Toji Temple in Kyoto, and in the afternoon, we visit Kongobuji Temple in Mount Koya, marking the end of the pilgrimage to the three major sacred sites of Kobo Daishi. The five-story pagoda, standing at 55 meters, is the tallest wooden structure in Japan. On the west side, the 'Lotus Gate' is said to be where Kobo Daishi, in his later years, left Toji Temple for seclusion in Mount Koya. It is believed that Fudo Myo-o, feeling deep regret, appeared at this gate to bid farewell. With each step Daishi took, lotus flowers bloomed, and Fudo Myo-o tearfully watched him until he disappeared from sight. Daishi spent the rest of his life in Mount Koya and never returned to Toji Temple, attaining Buddhahood in Okunoin. Additionally, the 'Treasure House' (an important cultural property) by the lotus pond is a warehouse that stores esoteric Buddhist implements and precious scriptures. It is said that Ishikawa Goemon, the greatest thief in history, once attempted to steal from it but failed. Mount Koya was founded by Kobo Daishi in 816 AD, with Kongobuji Temple being the head temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect. It includes two major sacred sites: Okunoin and Danjo Garan. In the deepest part of Okunoin is the mausoleum (a place where great figures are enshrined), where people believe Daishi still lives, continuously praying and meditating for world peace and human happiness. For 1200 years, a meal offering ceremony has been held twice daily without interruption. Along the 2-kilometer pilgrimage path to the mausoleum, there are 700-year-old cedar trees and over 200,000 tombstones and memorial tablets of people from all walks of life, including famous warlords from the Sengoku period like Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Oda Nobunaga. Transportation Costs: JR Kobe (Hyogo) - Kyoto ¥1110 JR Kyoto - Osaka - Namba ¥820 Nankai Electric Railway Namba - Hashimoto - Koyasan Station ¥1430 Bus Koyasan Station - Kongobuji Temple ¥360 Bus Okunoin - Koyasan Station ¥510 Nankai Electric Railway Koyasan Station - Hashimoto - Namba ¥1430 JR Namba - Kobe (Hyogo) ¥700 Additional Notes: Both Kongobuji Temple and Okunoin in Mount Koya have places to stamp pilgrimage books.

#DomesticTravelRecord I went to Kagawa 😌🫶 I visited for the first time since January this year, but no matter how many times I visit, it's a wonderful place! I happened to find out that there was a Yadon stamp rally going on at Kankakei in Shodoshima, so I decided to collect them while I was there ✨️ We got stamps at: ・Kankakei (Shodoshima) ・Shodoshima International Hotel (Shodoshima) ・Tamamo Park (Takamatsu) ✊💖 I also went to Ritsurin Garden, but I didn't know about this stamp rally at the time 😢 I'm glad we were able to complete it safely ☺️It seems like it's going on until the end of December this year, so if you're planning to visit Kagawa, please give it a try ❤️ There are Yadons everywhere in Kagawa and they're so cute! #KagawaTourism #KagawaTrip #Shodoshima #YadonPrefecture #StampRally

During our trip to Takamatsu in Shikoku, we visited one of the main islands around Takamatsu: Shodoshima. 💪🏻 While exploring the island, we stumbled upon Ramen Hishio, known for its unique Shodoshima soy sauce ramen. Ramen Hishio is famous for its Shodoshima soy sauce ramen. The broth is made from pork and chicken bones, combined with seafood broth made from dried fish from the Seto Inland Sea. The key ingredient is the locally produced Shodoshima soy sauce, which gives the ramen a rich and unique flavor without being greasy. 😋 You can enjoy the ramen while sitting at a seaside table, taking in the beautiful sunset over the Seto Inland Sea. It's a fantastic experience. 🌟 The restaurant is easy to find, located next to the Shodoshima International Hotel bus stop and near the famous Angel Road. It's very convenient. 😁 📍 Address: 24-18 Ko, Tonosho-cho, Shozu-gun, Kagawa Prefecture, Shodoshima Ramen Hishio 💰 Average cost per person: Around 800-1500 yen

Shodoshima is a charming island floating in the Seto Inland Sea, known for its olives and beautiful scenery. In autumn, the olive groves and autumn leaves turn vibrant colors, enveloping the entire island in a tranquil atmosphere. The sandy path called Angel Road, which appears and disappears with the tides, offers a magical view and is popular as a lovers' sanctuary. Additionally, there are many nostalgic spots to enjoy, such as the 'Twenty-Four Eyes' movie village, known as a filming location for the movie. Be sure to try the local gourmet dishes made with fresh olives harvested on the island. ◇Access Approximately 1 hour by ferry from Takamatsu Port

Entering the school is like being transported back to that time. The wooden window panes with the sea behind are very suitable for taking pictures There is also a screening room in the village that shows the movie Twenty-Four Pupils (the Chinese version was actually showing when I went there!) They also sell Showa-era style set meals and Shodoshima’s specialty - soy sauce ice cream. If you like to try new things, don’t miss it~ Movie Village is located at the cape of Shodoshima. It takes more than half an hour to get there by bus from Olive Park, and there are not many buses. It is recommended to check the return bus before getting off the bus so as not to wait at the bus booth.

When planning the trip last December, I contacted the shop via email to have a bike suitable for the pilgrimage assembled for me. After exchanging dozens of emails, I finally saw the long-awaited deep blue SIRRUS 2.0 flat-bar road bike. After picking up the bike, I rode around the area a bit and asked the owner to make some minor adjustments. The front and rear lights, storage bag, and heavy-duty lock were also installed. Tomorrow, I plan to ride to the Naruto Strait to warm up. The 60-day Shikoku Pilgrimage + Seto Inland Sea Cycling Tour is about to begin.

DAY 26: On the 23rd day of the official start of the Shikoku Pilgrimage, the 'Ehime Bodhi Dojo' was successfully completed, and half of the extra 20 temples were also completed. As the saying goes, 'A journey of a hundred miles is half done at ninety.' There are things I would never have done before, but now I am challenging my limits. After completing the nearly 1,000-kilometer pilgrimage of the Camino de Santiago and the Road to the End of the World in Spain last year (2023), impulsiveness is no longer a mindset but a driving force to keep moving forward. Faith makes one braver, more humble, and more loving. This is what Kobo Daishi taught me on this pilgrimage journey. Knowing that you have so much is the true beginning of wealth. Visiting Sacred Sites: ◎ 60th Yokomineji Temple (Difficult) Elevation 750 meters, six hours of hiking up and down, Inari Torii ◎ 61st Ko-onji Temple Modern architecture, enshrines the deity of safe childbirth and child-rearing ◎ 62nd Hojuji Temple ◎ 63rd Kichijoji Temple, Achievement Stone ◎ 64th Maegamiji Temple Accommodation: Hotel Trend Saijo, Saijo City Today's cycling distance: 41 kilometers Total cycling distance: 1,597 kilometers

#100 Ways to Travel DAY 25: After resting for four days in Matsuyama, today we continue our journey of practicing Buddhism. Starting from our accommodation to Fifty-four Enmeiji Temple, the 42-kilometer distance may take less than an hour by car, but it will take a whole day to hike; leaving the city Then we took Prefectural Road 196 and headed north along the coastline. When the sea breeze from the Seto Inland Sea gets serious, it will blow the whole city blue. Looking back at the road we have ridden, every day is full of memories, and today I also experienced it. It was the worst weather I have ever experienced. I rode in the heavy rain for about two hours. Although I was wearing a Peter Pan raincoat, the heat coming out of my body was like a sweat steamer. The rain did not stop until after noon; Imabari The city is famous for its "shipbuilding" and "towel products". I will visit this city again from Onomichi City via Shimanami Kaido. After visiting the shrine today, I plan to go to Saijo City to rest for three days, travel around and experience life. Visit the shrine: ◎Fifty-fourth Enmeiji Temple Enmeiji Similar in pronunciation to Enmeiji Temple, it was renamed in Meiji ◎55 Nankobo Nankobo Rebuilt after the war, the only one named after the workshop ◎56th Taisanji Temple Taisanji There is no mountain gate and it looks like a Japanese castle. ◎Fifty-seventh Eifukuji Temple Praying for safety at sea, the main scene of the movie "I am a Monk" was shot ◎Fifty-eighth Senyuji Temple Senyuji Elevation 270M, pleasant scenery ◎59th Iyo Kokubunji Temple Kokubunji There are seven little Bodhisattvas in the territory, shaking hands with the master ◎Biege Chapter 10 Xishan Xinglong Temple There is a pair of big straw sandals at the mountain gate, and there is a maple forest inside.

#100 Ways to Travel DAY 24: Today, I stood on the top of Shengshan Mountain and had a bird’s eye view of Songshan City. Mrs. Han asked me how I felt. I replied with some emotion: Only when people are at high places can they see the most beautiful scenery. Only when walking alone on the road can you tolerate your own willfulness. Looking towards the Seto Inland Sea, I will go to Imabari tomorrow and continue my path of Hōrō training. Matsuyama Castle was built in 1602 AD by Kato Yoshiaki, who is famous for being one of the Seven Guns of Mount Katsuyama. The castle tower located on the top of Katsuyama Mountain with an altitude of 132 meters is one of the twelve complete castle towers in Japan. The 17-meter-high stone wall of the Honmaru, as well as the zigzag "screen folding" stone wall, give people a sense of artistry that transcends the purpose of defense. In the late Meiji Restoration, Matsuyama Castle was transformed into a park. During the Showa era, fires and wars caused some damage to the buildings. It was not until Showa 41 (1966) that the first all-wood reconstruction in Japan began. Now there are 51 buildings of various sizes in the castle. The group, including 21 important cultural properties, has been restored to its former glory. The Ninomaru Historic Garden once unearthed gold coins that belonged to a Russian prisoner who had a secret love affair with a Japanese nurse during the Russo-Japanese War. Because of this Japanese-style landscape, it has become a popular location for wedding photography, so it was selected as the "Holy Land for Lovers" ”. There are remains of a large well in the garden, which is 18 meters long, 13 meters wide, and 9 meters deep. It is estimated that it was built as fire water at that time. The ladder-shaped wood used as the foundation still retains its appearance today. According to the division of the houses left at the Ninomaru Residence at that time, they are divided into "Omotigotenji Citrus and Herb Garden" and "Okugodenji Flowing Water Garden". On the east side of the garden is the "Linquan Garden", which is arranged with the rock outcrop as the background. The pools and waterfalls express a Zen feel. There are also "Kanheng Pavilion", "Juraku Pavilion" and "Katsuyama Pavilion" in the garden that can be rented to hold cultural exchange activities such as tea ceremonies and haiku gatherings.

#100 Ways to Travel DAY 23: I think fifth and sixth grade students should be familiar with the Japanese drama "Tokyo Love Story"! This is one of the final scenes of the most classic "Tokyo Love Story" in the golden age of Japanese dramas in 1991, and it is also the most touching episode. The final scene where Rika and Wanji say goodbye is at Umezuji Station in Ehime Prefecture, Shikoku. Rika stood on this platform and took the train to leave, with the lighthouse behind her still standing on the pier. After walking into the platform, the rhythm of the theme song "ラブ・ストーリーは Suddenly" clearly appeared in my mind. "I'm waiting for you at the station. I just checked the timetable. It's the 16:48 train. There are still two hours. If you change your mind before then, just come! This is your last request." Akana Rika reluctantly Said to Nagao Kanji with a smile. After 25 years apart, today, as a movie fan, I can finally come to this sad place that made many viewers cry with Lixiang. Although the material of the timetable above the ticket office of the station has been replaced, the amazing thing is that the train running time is exactly the same as before. The 16:48 tram mentioned by Lixiang is still there, as if time has been condensed and has not changed. Thank you for these well-preserved The scene can be traced many years later, while also reminiscing about the lost youth.

#100 Ways to Travel DAY 20: Dazhou City Tour Traveling through four countries is more than just a trip Along the way, there are scenery everywhere In the 1990s, a Japanese drama swept Asia and is known as the originator of modern youth idol dramas, that is "Tokyo Love Story". There is a place in the play that many people know is in Shikoku Ehime Prefecture, but few people have reached the specific location. Maruji said it, and Rika kept saying it. That is the hometown of the protagonist Nagao Kanji, Osu City, Ehime Prefecture. Osu City is located in the southern part of Ehime Prefecture, Shikoku Island, Japan, on the Humigawa River Basin. Like Kamakura, it is an ancient city with a long history of construction and is known as "Iyo's Little Kyoto". The name of the station is: Iyo Continent, because this was the territory of Iyo Country in ancient times. Starting from Osu Station, walk for about 15 minutes to reach the Humigawa River. After crossing the river, you will find Osu Old Town. On the high ground beside the river is Osu Castle. Osu Castle is built on the banks of the clear-flowing Humigawa River. Many military generals in the past dynasties have served as city lords Like the famous Takatora Todo (a retainer of Tokugawa Ieyasu) Unfortunately, the castle tower was demolished during the Meiji period and disappeared for more than a hundred years... The four-story wooden castle tower has been reconstructed and restored. It is based on historical materials such as old photos and wooden models from the Meiji period.

#100 Ways to Travel DAY 19： An earthquake measuring 6.4 on the Richter scale occurred at 11:17 Japan time last night. The epicenter was in the Toyogo Channel in Ehime Prefecture, Shikoku, with a depth of 50 kilometers. The Uwajima Oriental Hotel where I stayed was located in Ehime Prefecture, the rock district at the epicenter. The earthquake of September 21 didn't wake me up. This time I was sleeping soundly in the guest room on the sixth floor of the hotel. Suddenly, a sudden earthquake shook me and I jumped out of bed. I quickly dressed, picked up my bag and mobile phone, and I hurriedly moved to the first floor and saw that many people had gathered in the open space outside the lobby. The vases and display items at the elevator entrance were staggered. Then I called my wife to report that I was safe. When I returned to the room, I turned on the TV and every channel was on. Playing an earthquake report, the authorities said there was no need to worry about triggering a tsunami. I lay in bed and felt 3-4 aftershocks throughout the night. Although each time did not last long, it made me tremble all night long and made it difficult for me to sleep well. Today’s riding realization: Some roads must be walked alone. This is not loneliness, but choice. If you are insignificant in other people’s world, then shine in your own world.

#小岛 #四国 #小豆岛 Hanka Kei, located on Shodoshima Island in Kagawa Prefecture, is one of Japan's three wonders. It attracts countless tourists with its magnificent natural landscape and rich history and culture. The scenery here changes with the seasons. No matter when you visit, you can feel the infinite charm of nature. There are still direct flights from Hong Kong to Kagawa Prefecture in Shikoku, so it is very convenient to go to Shodoshima. The formation of Hanxia Creek can be traced back to volcanic activity about 13 million years ago. After a long period of crustal changes and weathering erosion, a unique landform has been formed here, with towering cliffs and strange rock groups. The fresh green in spring, the green in summer, the red leaves in autumn and the snowy scenery in winter make Hanxia Creek a tourist destination suitable for all seasons. One of the best ways to visit Hanxiaxi is to take the Hanxiaxi Cable Car. The cable car spans a canyon that is 7 kilometers wide from east to west and 4 kilometers long from north to south, allowing visitors to overlook the magnificent scenery of the entire valley from high altitude. The cabins of the cable car are equipped with large windows, allowing visitors to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. The cable car journey from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain takes about 5 minutes, but in this short time, you will experience the change of view from the valley to the top of the mountain. In addition to taking the cable car, hiking is also a great way to explore Hanxia Creek. There are many trails in Hanxia Creek. Along the way, you can enjoy the twelve scenic spots on the outside and eight scenic spots in Hanxia Creek. These scenic spots include Tongtian Temple, Hongyun Pavilion, Jinpingfeng, Laoshan Cave, etc. Each of them contains rich natural and humanistic stories. Autumn is the most beautiful season in Hanxia Creek. The entire valley is dyed fiery red with red leaves, like an oil painting. The best viewing period for red leaves is from early to late November every year. At this time, Hanxia Creek attracts a large number of tourists to watch this annual natural wonder. Whether it's the magnificent valley scenery or the changing natural scenery of the four seasons, Shodoshima Hanka Kei can make people linger. If you plan to go to Shodoshima, Kanka Kei is definitely one of the attractions you can’t miss.

DAY 17: Waking up today to a drizzly, rainy weather, Good weather or bad weather, it's all part of the pilgrimage. I can't change the weather, but I can adjust my journey accordingly. During the pilgrimage, making good use of public transportation is also a great option. From Nakamura Station to Cape Ashizuri, you can take a bus, A one-way ticket costs ¥1900, and the journey takes about 2 hours. Cape Ashizuri is located at the southernmost point of Shikoku, and I personally think the shape of Kochi Prefecture resembles a horizontally placed banana. The 24th temple, Hotsumisakiji, is at the banana's head, while the 38th temple, Kongofukuji, is at the banana's tail. These two sacred sites are 241 kilometers apart. After visiting them, besides checking in at the southernmost point, you must visit the nearby Manjiro Foot Bath to soak your feet, relax your muscles, and admire the granite cave, Hakusan Domon, which has been eroded by the sea waves for years. Visiting Sacred Sites: ◎ 38th Temple Kongofukuji Stone Master Turtle, Shikoku's Southernmost Ashizuri Lighthouse, Manjiro Foot Bath Accommodation: Nakamura Daiichi Hotel, Shimanto City Today's Cycling Distance: 0 km Total Cycling Distance: 1041 km

DAY 9: Among the 88 Buddhist temples on Shikoku Henji, the three major places of trouble (Ichiyakiyama, Futakurin, and Santaryu) are met at once. Among them, Tairyuji Temple, which stands at an altitude of 600 meters in Naga Town, Tokushima Prefecture, has been known as "Takano of the West". Kobo Daishi Kukai, who was 19 years old at the time, practiced Buddhism at Mount Tairyū for 100 days. This was recorded in one of the lines of "Guide to the Return of the Three Teachings" written by the master when he was 24 years old: "Climb Mount Tairyū in Aguo and reach the earth. "Sumuro Tozaki diligently meditated, and did not hesitate to wait until he became a star." This shows that the practice at Tairyuji Temple and Muroto Cape had a profound impact on the master's ideological formation in his youth. In the temple territory of Tairyuji Temple, it has the name suitable for the spiritual mountain. There are giant cedar trees about hundreds of years old and cypress trees covering the entire mountain. Halls, Rokkaku Sutras and Niomon are scattered in the mountain. There is also a statue of the practicing master built to commemorate the 1,200th anniversary of the master’s entry into the mountain and the opening of the aerial cable car ~ Mt. Shoshin-no-dake. Here you can feel the master’s state of mind in seeking knowledge and practice, and feel the soul. of peace and tranquility. Tairyuji Temple's aerial ropeway is said to be the largest in Western Japan, with a total length of 2,775 meters, a one-way trip of 10 minutes, and a round-trip fare of ¥2,600. Cross the river, cross the mountains From the foot of the mountain to Pillar 1, you can enjoy the beautiful view of the Washishiki area of ​​Naga Town. Pillars 1 to 2 offer views of the Jianshan Mountains From the second pillar to the top of the mountain, you can enjoy the view of Kii Waterway.

On a recent trip to Shodoshima in Shikoku, Japan, I opted for a local day tour, one of the highlights being the Twenty-Four Eyes Movie Village. Just a 700-meter walk from Tanoura Fishing Port, it's a hidden gem where you can gaze out at the captivating Seto Inland Sea, feeling as though you've stepped right into a film scene, surrounded by a serene and leisurely ambiance. The village also recreates numerous scenes from novels and movies, offering visitors a heightened sense of immersion and presence.

#KagawaTourism #Shodoshima #AngelRoad #Sunrise #Solo #SoloTrip #TwiceADay #777 There is a road with a cute name on Shodoshima Island in Kagawa Prefecture. “Angel Road” Twice a day, at low tide, a road appears that connects the islands. When I went there, the sunrise happened to be at low tide, so I was able to see a beautiful sun. It felt like I had received some kind of power from early in the morning, and I felt like I could spend the day comfortably. I would like to find a good time to go here again.
