Multilingual Guide to the Pilgrimage Island of Japan
Kagawa Junior College, Utazu, Japan
Supplied note: "The Shikoku guidebook on the Web, serving readers since 1997, has had complete versions in French, Spanish, Dutch, and English (with some Japanese). Now the English alternates with Japanese in most chapters for the sake of those studying either language. In this way, non-Japanese people can learn Japanese language and culture at the same time, while Japanese people learning English can also learn how to express their cultural heritage in English. The island of Shikoku in southwestern Japan is a traditional region that maintains Japan's most celebrated pilgrimage of 88 Buddhist temples. - smc."
