'''Shikoku''' (四国) is the smallest of [[Japan]]'s four main [[island]]s, with a land area of 18,800 square kilometers. One of the least visited of all the islands, the majority of travelers consist of [[Buddhist]] pilgrims, visiting the 88 [[shrines]] found on the island. The largest city is [[Matsuyama]], renowned for [[ Matsuyamajo]], one of the last original [[castle]]s left in [[Japan]], completed in 1628.
