Visit a Temple in the Traditional ‘Ohenro’ Pilgrim’s Garb!

Visit a Temple in the Traditional ‘Ohenro’ Pilgrim’s Garb!

At a facility standing in front of the first temple of the Shikoku 88 pilgrimage, you will get an explanation to learn the manners on how to go on a pilgrimage from an expert “ohenro” guide, and you will hear the history and cultural background of the Shikoku 88 pilgrimage. Afterward, rent religious attire consisting of a white robe, “wagesa” stole, “kongo” walking stick and a “suge” straw hat, then get changed. Experience writing on “osamefuda” name slips, a custom that dates back to ancient times. You can take this brush home as a souvenir. Visit a temple the right way by learning how to enter a temple, wash your hands and gargle at the wash area, handle candles and incense and use your “osamefuda” name slips.
