Comparing Public Transportation and Walking Routes

The distance from Kiyotakiji Temple to Shoryuji Temple is approximately 14 km, taking about 4 hours to walk. Using public transportation can reduce the amount of walking, but keep in mind that bus services are limited, and the most convenient route and bus stop may vary depending on the time of day.

Reduce the Walk to Shoryuji by Taking the Bus

The Tosa City Dragon Bus can take you to the Ryu bus stop, which is close to Shoryuji Temple. Since it is only about 800 meters from Ryu to Shoryuji, the Usa–Ino Line is a convenient option when the schedule works for you.

If you take a different service, such as the Usa–Nakajima Line, you may need to get off at a bus stop farther from Shoryuji, which means a longer walk.

Choose the Bus Route Based on the Time

For this section, the Usa–Ino Line is not necessarily the best option in every situation.

Usa–Ino Line

• Stops at Ryu, which is close to Shoryuji
• Short walking distance from the bus stop to Shoryuji
• However, services are limited

Usa–Nakajima Line

• There may be more services available at certain times
• However, some services require you to get off at a bus stop farther from Shoryuji

Therefore, check the departure time and the walking distance from the bus stop to Shoryuji before setting out.

Should You Wait for the Bus or Walk?

Taking the bus can make the journey easier, but if you have to wait a long time, walking may actually be faster.

Especially for walking pilgrims, it may be best to think of the bus as an option to use when the schedule works for you.

With a fare of just ¥300, the bus is a convenient choice if you want to avoid walking the entire distance or reduce fatigue.

The key to this section is not simply taking the bus, but choosing the right service and the right bus stop. Check the route that best matches your departure time using the transfer information in this article before setting out.
