Today is the last day of this Shikoku trip and visiting 2 famous spots: Shintoisum shrine of Kompira-san which is the head of approximately 600 Kotohira or Kompira shrine has over 1400 years history; Zentsuji temple which is also head of 28 Zentsuji temple in Japan and has over 1200 years history and the birth place of Kukai.
Before going to the shrine, we took the thermal bath which is equipped our room in the morning. The photos are the water analysis table and the bath with view. Then we went to the breakfast buffet as above photo,😋delicious again😋.
The Kompira-san is located the mountain Zozu so we had to climb up 785 steps🥵. This shrine is quite famous with the cheerful folklore song “Kompira fune fune ～” and the song was played at approach path🎵📢🎶.
Further 583 steps🥵💦, there is Oku-shya (Izutama shrine)👺 the guardian deity of Kompira shrine. From here it has a nice view of Sanuki plain and also so called Power-spot✨: where you can get spiritual positive energy💖.
After climb down the mount Zozu, we went to visit Zentsuji located at flat place😌. This birth place of Kukai (Kobo-daishi) is the founder of Shingon Buddism and one of 3 sacred sites along with Toji Temple and Koya-san according to the official website.
After 2 big religious spots visiting in Kagawa, we visited Ritsurin Park and this prefecture’s regional speciality: Udon🍜 exposition for relaxing😮💨. However, we found the park were huge as 16.2Ha and couldn’t see all💦.
