Author notes-
Mr. Matsushita, established author of Shikoku Japan 88 Route Guide has spent over one year, walking all over Shodoshima collecting data to make this highly informative map.
Modern people just don’t walk anymore, we would all rather drive than take the time to get around on foot. When you walk, the chance encounters you have with people, the wild flowers you notice growing by the side of the road, are everywhere. Mr. Matsushita hopes many people will come to Shodoshima and experience the ancient pilgrimage culture that still remains today.
