Located on the grounds of Shosouji Temple, this is a reconstruction of the place where famous Japanese poet Masaoka Shiki lived until he was 17. There’s a recreation of his study as well, and his desk, calligraphy, and personal articles are on display. In the plaza out front, you’ll also find the “Bocchan train,” which is the oldest extant light locomotive.

誠実まいねお in the last week
Shiki Masaoka's visit to his parents' home It had a nostalgic atmosphere, but I was reluctant to walk on the carpet with shoes on. Since it is Shiki-do Hall, which represents Matsuyama City, I thought it would be a good idea to improve it further and raise the admission fee to 50 yen.

The house where Shiki spent his childhood is on display as Shikido. There are also manuscripts from that time, making it a great place for history buffs to reminisce. There is a haiku written by Naruki Naito on the side of the cemetery, and I was struck by the spirit of Naito, who is said to have learned it from Shiki.

There is nothing to look at. It is waste time and money

The house where Shiki Masaoka lived. There are many exhibits to see. The admission fee is 50 yen, but if you use the Mican app, you can get an additional half price. Although it is in front of Matsuyama City Station, there is a parking lot, and the person in charge guided us. Since it was the equinox, people who came to visit the grave next door were also using the parking lot. In front of Shikido, only the passenger car of the Botchan train is on display, and you are free to ride it and take photos.
