About This Destination
Konpira-gu is one of Japan's most beloved Shinto shrines, famous for its arduous ascent up 1,368 stone steps to the inner sanctuary on Mount Zozu. The pilgrimage up the forested mountainside passes through traditional shopping streets, elegant halls, and temple buildings before rewarding climbers with panoramic views over the Sanuki Plain. Dedicated to seafarers and travelers, the shrine has drawn pilgrims for centuries who come to pray for safety on their journeys.
