[Notes on the Stamps]
The pilgrimage circuit of 88 temples on Shikoku island of Japan is the
road over 1400 kilometers to visit the temples related to Kukai (777-835),
Buddhist priest. There are many National Treasures and Important Cultural
Properties among the temples. The road starts in Tokushima, going through
Kouchi and Ehime, and ends in Kagawa.
