Shikoku's Essential Treasures

Shikoku’s landscape is defined by the 1,200-kilometer Shikoku Henro pilgrimage, featuring 88 Buddhist temples like the cliff-side Iwaya-ji and the historic Yashima-ji. The region preserves feudal history through original Edo-period structures, including the hilltop Matsuyama and Kōchi Castles. Beyond spiritual and historic sites, the island showcases unique engineering like the Tei Port Movable Bridge and botanical artistry at the officially recognized Monet’s Garden Marmottan in Kitagawa village.
