After Inuboozaki, we went to Naritasan Shinshoji Temple.
This is a famous and very wide temple.

Nestled in the secluded mountains of Kōchi, Shinshō-ji, the 25th temple on the Shikoku Pilgrimage, offers a deeply tranquil atmosphere. Founded by Kūkai (Kōbō Daishi), who is believed to have carved its principal Kannon statue himself, the temple's history is one of ascetic practice. Its structures are spread across a forested hillside, connected by stone paths, approaching each hall on a reflective journey. A captivating, lesser-known feature is its collection of moss-covered Jizō statues, which sit serenely in a grove, watching over pilgrims and enhancing the site's powerful sense of secluded spirituality.
