Iwaya-ji is temple No. 45 on the Shikoku Pilgrimage, or Henro. If there’s one temple on the pilgrimage you really should visit in Ehime Prefecture, Iwaya-ji is it. The temple is located on Kuma Highland in a gorge formed of conglomerate rock. It inspires awe, from the trek up the hillside, to its location embedded in a pock-marked cliff, and the beauty of its structures. At an altitude of 585 m, this temple is one of the nansho (difficult to reach places) of Ehime and mountain recluses and wandering holy men once performed their religious disciplines among the cliffs here.

Daihō-ji, the Temple of Great Treasure, is temple No. 44 on the Shikoku Pilgrimage. It stands in a forest of ancient cypress trees in the area known as Kuma Highland in central Ehime.

Ryūsui-an is a Buddhist temple 6.6 km from Fujii-dera. When Kūkai rested here, he wanted water. So he dug a well with a willow branch. The spring is called ‘willow water’ even today. Legend has it that Kūkai carved an image of himself and placed it here. The lodging here closed in 2001. There are primitive toilets here.

Jōren-an is a Buddhist temple 8.8 km from Fujii-dera at an altitude of 745 m, the highest point on the Shōsan-ji Road. A huge cedar, the ‘Ippon Sugi’ grows here and there’s a large bronze statue of Kūkai. Legend has it that Kūkai had a dream of Amida Nyorai while sleeping beneath the tree and carved a statue of the deity.

Henro Korogashi are particularly steep sections of the Shikoku pilgrimage trail. The name roughly translates as 'pilgrim killer'. This is the first such section between temples 11 and 12.
