The 18 Head Temples, which are the head temples of the Shingon Sect, have a unique characteristic compared to other sacred sites and temples, in that they are centered around Zentsuji Temple, where the founder Kobo Daishi was born, Toji Temple (Kyoogokoku-ji Temple), which was entrusted to Kobo Daishi by Emperor Saga as the fundamental training center of the Shingon Sect, and Koyasan (Kongobu-ji Temple), where Kobo Daishi entered Nirvana.

This is a goshuincho (temple stamp book) and guide book from a pilgrimage undertaken in 2010-2011. The 14 temples have already been visited and stamped, so there are no plans for future visits. Please continue the pilgrimage for the remaining 4 temples. It has been stored for about 15 years, so there is yellowing, stains, and pen marks due to age-related deterioration. Also, the goshuincho has a name written inside, which has been covered with a sticker. Please consider purchasing with the understanding that this is a used item.
