At Tomonoura, the missions typically stayed at a guest house known as the Taichôrô; built by [[Mizuno Katsutane]] as the main hall (''hondô'') of the Buddhist temple Fukuzen-ji, the guest house was quite large, its rooms totaling 78 squares of [[tatami]] in area. Korean envoy [[Yi Bang-eon]]<!--李邦彦--> wrote in 1711 that the view of the Inland Sea from the Taichôrô was the best view in Japan.<ref name=okayama56>''Chôsen tsûshinshi to Okayama'', 56.</ref>

After passing by Shiraishi-jima, Shimo-tsui, and Hibi, the mission arrived at the port of Ushimado, where they again stayed overnight. Their reception at Ushimado was overseen by the [[Ikeda clan]] of [[Okayama han]], who housed the Korean mission at the Buddhist temple [[Honren-ji]] up until the 1650s, and then for the rest of the Edo period at the Ikeda's own ''[[honjin|chaya]]'' (lit. "teahouse"). The next major port where the mission stopped was Murotsu, in [[Harima province]], where they were lodged at the private ''chaya'' ("teahouse") of the lord of [[Himeji han]].<ref name=okayama56/>

Their reception at Ushimado was overseen by the [[Ikeda clan]] of [[Okayama han]]. Though the earliest missions simply stayed overnight on their ships in the harbor, from 1624 onwards, Korean missions came ashore at Ushimado. They were housed at the Buddhist temple [[Honren-ji]] from 1624 to 1655, and then for the rest of the Edo period at the Ikeda's own ''[[honjin|chaya]]'' (lit. "teahouse") in the port-town.

After traveling through the Inland Sea by ship to Osaka, the embassy was lodged in the city's branch temple of [[Nishi Honganji]], which boasted a massive compound more than capable of hosting all thousand-something members of the Korean & Tsushima retinues.<ref name=ethnic447/> They usually stayed for 3 to 10 days, being housed at the Tsumura-betsuin within the Hongan-ji compound, and in particular at a two-story Korean-style building known as the ''Tô no ma'' (lit. "Chinese room").<ref name=okayama56/>
