The final temple on the Shikoku 88 Holy Place pilgrimage route

‣ On the underground floor, there are small images of the 88 temples, and you can do the ‘osuna-fumi’, which is paying respects after walking across sand collected from all of the pilgrimage route temples. 

‣ At the entrance is the soba restaurant Yasoba-an. The noodles are made from locally produced flour and the holy water of Okuboji Temple, and can be enjoyed with dishes made from local mountain vegetables.
