The is a pilgrimage of eighty-eight temples on the island of Shikoku, Japan. It is believed all eighty-eight temples were visited by the famous Buddhist monk KÅ«kai, who was born in ZentsÅ«ji, Shikoku in 774. However, KÅ«kai only mentions visiting two of them in his own extant writings. In addition to the eighty-eight "official" temples of the pilgrimage, there are over 200 bangai - temples not considered part of the official eighty-eight. In order to complete the pilgrimage, it is not necessary to visit the temples in order; in some cases it is even considered lucky to travel in reverse order. The pilgrimage is traditionally completed on foot, but modern pilgrims will use cars, taxis, buses, bicycles, or motorcycles. The walking course is approximately 1,200km long and can take anywhere from 30 to 60 days to complete. Pilgrims who visit all of the temples are known as ''o-henro-san'' (ãŠéè·¯ã•ã‚“) and are often recognizable by their white clothing, sedge hats, and walking sticks. Many pilgrims begin and complete the journey by visiting Mount KÅya in Wakayama Prefecture, which was settled by KÅ«kai and remains the headquarters of the Shingon sect of Buddhism. The 21km walking trail up to Koya-san still exists, but most pilgrims use the train.
In addition to the main pilgrimage on the island of Shikoku, there are miniature versions of the pilgrimage north of Takamatsu on the island of ShÅdoshima, and on the grounds of Ninna-ji Temple in Kyoto.
