Ryokoji Temple (41st Pilgrimage Site)

日本、〒798-1115 愛媛県宇和島市三間町戸雁173

3.9(552)

This is the 41st pilgrimage site of the Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage and belongs to the Onjo-ji branch of the Shingon sect. The principal image is the Eleven-Faced Kannon, and the temple was once venerated as an Inari temple under the system of syncretic Shinto-Buddhist worship.

History

According to tradition, in 807 CE (Doto 2), Kukai visited this site and encountered an old man, whom he realized was an incarnation of the Five Grains Great Deity (Gokoku Dai Myojin). He then enshrined an image of the Inari Myojin. During the mid-Edo period, it was popularly known as the 'Three-Bay Inari' under the syncretic Shinto-Buddhist system. However, it was separated from the Inari shrine due to the separation of Shinto and Buddhism in the Meiji era.

A refreshing temple set against a small hill, with a relatively flat approach path, though the road to the parking lot has very narrow sections. The temple register office opens at 8:00 AM, and security cameras are installed within the grounds. The surrounding area is quiet, and visiting on foot is possible.
