Beginning with the Shikoku pilgrimage,
we revive Japan's pilgrimage cultures and carry them forward.

Business Overview

Restoring pilgrimage culture,
carrying it forward.

A cultural restoration project. Beginning in Shikoku. Extending to the pilgrimage cultures across Japan.

This is not simply a Buddhist circuit. Nature reverence, Shintō, Shugendō, fused with Kūkai's spiritual world — a uniquely Japanese fabric. We redefine it as the source of Japan's beauty and spirit, and translate it into a contemporary experience.

The culture is in structural decline. In Shikoku, working shukubo have fallen from about 60 to roughly 7. Across the country, only a handful remain — eroded by depopulation, the loss of service infrastructure, and aging leadership.

We redesign the experiential value of pilgrimage and create new demand — building a sustainable cultural and regional model.
