About

A seaside temple overlooking Shido Bay, with views toward Mt. Yashima and Mt. Goken. Both the three-bay gate and main hall are Important Cultural Properties, while a vermilion five-storied pagoda adds color to the tranquil scenery. The Daishidō offers a welcoming rest point near the sea.

Johannes comment

Jungle-like garden temple; friendly staff and shop. Don’t miss okuno-in Jizō-ji (~500 m before the temple on the walking route). Unique: ‘Albergue 88’ foreigner-only stay (passport registration at Nokyōchō; key/instructions; two tatami rooms + bath; up to 2 nights; bring sleeping gear). Shido is a solid base for luggage-free visits to 87–88.

Who is Johannes?

I like to travel, and whenever I have time, I walk all over the place. He is particularly knowledgeable about the Shikoku Pilgrimage and enjoys talking about the temples and the journey. I like talking to people and value encounters.
