A restful lodging at the gates of Okuboji, wrapped in nature and history
Located right at the gate of Okuboji—the final temple on the Shikoku Pilgrimage—Minshuku Yasokubo warmly welcomes pilgrims as they reach their journey’s end. The six Japanese-style rooms come equipped with personal washbasins, and dedicated stands for pilgrims’ walking sticks, showing care for every step of the journey. Traditional celebratory dishes served by the hostess include red rice for gratitude, somen noodles symbolizing longevity and happiness, and fresh sea bream sashimi—each dish steeped in heartfelt meaning that gently soothes the body and soul. Conversations among fellow pilgrims in the dining hall and stories of the deep history of the area only add to the richness of this lodging. On the peaceful “night of completion” at Okuboji, this inn softly embraces your final steps, offering a night of warm reflection.

It seems that there used to be a temple lodging in Okubo-ji Temple, but now it is the only one around Okubo-ji Temple. Sekihan was served to celebrate KECHIGAN. Overall clean.
★★★★ (4 out of 5 stars)
The inn is beautiful, and the food is delicious (there is also sekihan).
★★★★★ (5 out of 5 stars)
There are many pilgrims who are regulars because it is fun to have conversations with the proprietress and the grand proprietress, and exchanging information at the cafeteria is always helpful.
I wanted to walk to Bekkaku No.20 Otaki-ji Temple on the Kotohira Road, so I consulted with him, and he sent me an early morning car to the trailhead of the local Kotohira Shrine.
By the way, this is the parents’ home of the women’s softball player, Inui.
Just talking with the landlady will give you energy.
★★★★★ (5 out of 5 stars)
It is a fun inn where conversation is lively.
Minshuku Yasokubo is located in No.88 Okubo-ji Temple.

A very kind hostess welcomed us.
She served me red rice and it was very delicious.
I think that it is very suitable as the last inn.
★★★★★ (5 out of 5 stars)
During the meal, the proprietress and the grand proprietress joined in, and the conversation was lively in the atmosphere of relief that the guests had reached the finish line.
Whether it was your first pilgrimage, walking pilgrimage, continuous pilgrimage, or reverse pilgrimage, the landlady welcomed us with a kind smile as we were novice pilgrims wearing brand new pilgrimage gear purchased at a shop in front of the Okubo-ji Temple gate.
★★★★★ (5 out of 5 stars)
The landlady’s consideration for pilgrims can be felt everywhere, from the clean rooms to the meals.
This is the perfect lodging for both the beginning and end of your pilgrimage.
For dinner, red rice was prepared to celebrate the wish. It’s also fun to talk to the landlady. The next day, due to time constraints, I did not plan to visit Ryozen-ji Temple, but thanks to the advice and planning of the landlady, I was able to visit the next morning safely. Thank you very much.
