Visit Tsururin-ji Temple, the 20th temple of the Shikoku Pilgrimage Route, a quiet ancient temple nestled in the mountains

About this spot

An ancient temple known as the 20th temple of the Shikoku Eighty-Eight Temple Pilgrimage, quietly situated on the mountainside at high elevation. The temple grounds, surrounded by towering cedar trees, are enveloped in a solemn atmosphere, and as you ascend the approach path, you can feel yourself detaching from the noise of daily life. The historic three-story pagoda is also a highlight, offering a sense of the nature and deep faith unique to mountainous Katsuura Town.

Tips

From Michi no Eki Hinasato Katsuura, it takes about 20 minutes by car up a mountain road. The approach has many stone steps and slopes, so wear comfortable hiking shoes. In summer, there is much shade and it remains relatively cool.
