Seven Temples Walk in Onomichi
The small town of Onomichi holds more temples than you would expect. Enjoy a pleasant walking route to all seven temples. The Temple Walking route is about 2.5 kilometers long and can anywhere from an hour to half a day depending on how much time is spent at each temple.
If you collect all seven red seals from the seven temples with various blessings, you can receive a seal of fulfillment and a paper hanging scroll. You can also make your own "lucky charm bracelet" while collecting the power stones. You can enjoy many scenes typical of Onomichi in the alleys connecting the temples.
- Please bring your own lunch or bring enough Yen to enjoy a local meal.
