What is a “Pilgrimage to Hell?”:
Feel history when visiting temples and Jizo
sites associated with hell. (Jizo Bosatsu is a
Buddhist divinity who saves beings suffering in
hell.) Stop along the way for delicious
gourmet foods and shopping at shops on the
paths to the sacred sites. Then pray at Taga
Taisha, a shrine that offers divine blessings in
matchmaking.
