the local people traditionally welcome pilgrims regardless of your nationality, race, and even religion. though this kind of trip might not be your first thing to do in Japan, you’ll definitely see what Japan really is like. most of Japanese you’ll encounter there are unlikely to speak English, however, I suppose, that’ll be not a big deal. about a year ago, an Irish woman asked me for help because she couldn’t find 納経所 where gives pilgrims a stamp on their books at 太山寺 in Ehime. she tried to communicate with me in Japanese in a clumsy way. as a Japanese living in such a rural area, that was the first time to see a foreigner seriously trying to communicate in Japanese, which simply made me feel happy since at least that moment, she tried to be in our culture while lots of tourists in other parts of Japan avoiding to speak Japanese. most likely, you won’t see real Totoro or chihiro, but you could understand how Japanese pilgrims used to purify themselves from olden time.
I’ve been thinking about this trip since seeing a documentary about it years ago. GREAT piece of art you’ve created here. So glad I was lucky enough to see it
спасибо за замечательное видео, моя мечта, поехать туда и пройти весь путь до конца, вы тоже всё прошли?, вижу вам с погодой повезло, интересно Осенью тоже без осатков будет
Wow! Really enjoyed your Shikoku Henro and the choice of background music. Beautiful and interesting. Thanks so much and bravo! I like the accomodations in your video. Did you need to book in advance? As I'm a slow walker and a wanderer ;-p
Bonjour, je regarde toutes les videos sur ce pèlerinage qui me fait rêver depuis tellement longtemps. C'est grâce à ces videos que je trouverais la force de le faire un jour, j'espère ! Au fait quelle est cette magnifique musique à partir de 7:30?
You might call this the long version, but my wife and I could watch another hour. Beautiful and now it is going to be on our must do list. If I could ask a couple questions. 1- did you have a guidebook that identified the stages to walk? 2- that stamp scroll you had at the end, is that a stamp for each temple you Visit? That’s is beautiful!!! 3- was the trek well marked to keep you from getting lost Thanks and I hope you don’t mind if I ask the occasional question as we plan this trip Chris
Hello. I don't speak English, so I write through Google Translate. Yes, there is a book whose path is marked on the map. Yes, a seal is required in every temple. Register in the facebook OHENRO SAN group and you will find answers to all your questions if you plan to go this route.
Superbe! Ça fait un bon moment que je compte faire ce pèlerinage, j'espère pouvoir y aller pour tout début Octobre (si les restrictions d'entrées pour les étrangers au Japon sont favorables) et faire les 88 temples a pied + les 20 et quelques Bangais, je vise les 60 jours de marche minimum. Si jamais c'est pas possible en 2020 je vais tenter de le faire comme vous en Mars/Avril voir dépasser un bout sur début Mai. Est-ce que vous avez eu besoin d'un GPS dédié type Garmin ou simplement un smartphone suffit? J'ai entendu que certains l'on fait en campant de temps en temps (sans laisser de trace, montage le soir au coucher du soleil, démontage au lever du jour), vous en pensez quoi?
I am inspired to do this trek. Approximately what is the kind of financial budget that one must have to do the trip (exclude arrivals to Japan etc). Is there a Henro office or volunteers who can help with the planning for where to stay along the way etc. Yoroshiku
You need to buy a book, there is a marked trail and a lodge with telephones. No need to plan a route, just follow directions or phone apps. Accommodation is expensive at $45/$55 with dinner, but you can spend the night in tents, then the trips are inexpensive….
combien de jour, faut il pour faire les 88 temples? je suis admirative, car ça n'a pas du etre facile entre la marche et filmer. j'ai des tas de questions sur ce periple, merci pour ce reportage.
Bonjour Sylvie, J'ai moi-même effectué ce Pèlerinage en 2017. A pied, cela m'a prit une cinquantaine de jours et c'est une expérience incroyable et inoubliable !
@Sylvie Bonzon, je suis en train de lire "Comme une feuille de thé a Shikoku" de Marie-Edith Laval, c'est comme cela que je suis arrivée sur cette video, souhaitant voir les paysages qu'elle décrit. Je te recommande son livre.
