Omuro Hachijuhachi-kasho Reijo

The Omuro Hachijuhachi-kasho Reijo is a 3-kilometer, 2-hour walking course that is a miniature version of the famous Shikoku pilgrimage. The Shikoku route takes pilgrims to 88 temples situated around the perimeter of Japan’s Shikoku Island.

Ninnaji’s scaled-down version, which ascends the steep hill called Mt. Joju at the rear of the temple, takes pilgrims past 88 chapels called fudasho. They can collect an amulet at each chapel while venerating the priest Kukai (Kobo Daishi), to whose teachings Ninnaji is dedicated. Obtaining all 88 amulets and completing the route earns one the title kechigan, and is said to bestow prosperity equal to that attained by completing the Shikoku pilgrimage, which is 400 times longer.

Ninanji’s 29th head priest inaugurated the miniature route in 1827 in response to a call for a less arduous alternative to the Shikoku pilgrimage. He brought back sand from the sacred grounds of the Shikoku pilgrimage, scattered it along the paths of Mt. Joju, and then commenced the construction of the 88 fudasho. One structure on the trail is made from part of a former bathhouse on the Shikoku trail where pilgrims would stop and wash after visiting the last of the 88 pilgrimage sites, though is not used as a bathhouse at Ninnaji.

御室八十八所靈場

仁和寺的諸多建築是後續遷入，御室八十八所靈場也不例外。靈場全長3公里，訪遍全程約需2小時，其路線原型來自知名的「四國遍路」——巡拜四國島（日本四大島之一）外圍88處寺院的宏大行程。

仁和寺的巡拜路線是四國遍路的微型版本。參拜者須登上寺院後方海拔236公尺的成就山，巡拜88處名為「札所」的小祠堂，並在札所收集小型護身符。如能走完全程並成功集滿所有護身符，則等於「結願」，據信可獲得與參拜完四國遍路（總距離約400倍）同等的福報。仁和寺第29代住持得知四國靈場極度擁擠的情況後，於1827年開設了此靈場。他將四國遍路靈場的砂礫帶回寺院，撒在成就山的登山路線上，其後即開始建設88札所。

「OMURO88」（參加費用：300日圓／人）無需事先申請，可直接參加。參加者可尋訪祠堂，收集有神佛保佑的御朱印（印章）等，相當值得留念。相關詳情請查看寺院官網（http://www.ninnaji.jp/hallowed_ground/）。

御室八十八所灵场

仁和寺的建筑多为后续迁入，御室八十八所灵场也不例外。灵场全长3公里，访遍全程约需2小时，其路线原型来自知名的“四国遍路”——巡拜四国岛（日本四大岛之一）外围88处寺院的宏大行程。

仁和寺的巡拜路线是微缩的四国遍路。参拜者须登上寺院后方海拔236米的成就山，巡拜88处名为“札所”的小祠堂，并在札所收集小型护身符。如能走完全程并成功集齐所有护身符，即相当于“结愿”，相传可获得与参拜完四国遍路（总距离约400倍）同等的福报。在得知四国灵场极度拥挤的情形后，仁和寺第29代住持于1827年开设了此灵场。他将四国遍路灵场的砂砾带回寺院，撒在成就山的登山路线上，随后便开始建造88札所。

“OMURO88”（参加费用：300日元／人）可直接参加，无需提前申请。参加者可寻访祠堂，收集有神佛保佑的御朱印（印章）等，相当值得留念。相关详情请查看寺院官网（http://www.ninnaji.jp/hallowed_ground/）。
