DAY 9:
Among the 88 Buddhist temples on Shikoku Henji, the three major places of trouble (Ichiyakiyama, Futakurin, and Santaryu) are met at once. Among them, Tairyuji Temple, which stands at an altitude of 600 meters in Naga Town, Tokushima Prefecture, has been known as "Takano of the West".
Kobo Daishi Kukai, who was 19 years old at the time, practiced Buddhism at Mount Tairyū for 100 days. This was recorded in one of the lines of "Guide to the Return of the Three Teachings" written by the master when he was 24 years old: "Climb Mount Tairyū in Aguo and reach the earth. "Sumuro Tozaki diligently meditated, and did not hesitate to wait until he became a star." This shows that the practice at Tairyuji Temple and Muroto Cape had a profound impact on the master's ideological formation in his youth.

There are giant cedar trees about hundreds of years old and cypress trees covering the entire mountain. Halls, Rokkaku Sutras and Niomon are scattered in the mountain.
