I haven't read it much because I was being careful with it, so it's in very good condition, but the obi (sleeve) has been caught and torn.
It contains many beautiful, all-color photographs. It's a kind of photo collection. There is almost no commentary, but there are many photos, so it's visually appealing and worth reading.
404 pages in total

This is a valuable photo collection with 404 all-color pages, featuring the main Buddhist images and hidden Buddhas that are revealed once every few decades or even once every thousand years at the Shikoku pilgrimage temples. With the full cooperation of the Shikoku pilgrimage temples, this is a beautiful photo collection. It is gaining momentum towards World Heritage registration.

Special public viewing of the principal images of the Shikoku Eighty-Eight Temple Pilgrimage. These are Buddhas that have been hidden from view for a long time, not only from pilgrims but from everyone. This photo collection was created with the intention of making them objects of prayer, minimizing the lighting as much as possible, and taking photographs with the feeling of receiving light from the Buddhas.
