This is a Goshuincho (temple/shrine stamp book) with a distinctive accordion-style format.
It is used to receive Goshuin, which are given as proof of visiting a temple or shrine. We decided to stock this item because, in addition to its sturdy cover and beautiful design, it can also be used for other purposes.
Originally, Goshuin were given as proof of having transcribed Buddhist scriptures and submitted them to a temple.
For this reason, Goshuin are still sometimes called "Nokyo-in" (scripture submission stamps) and Goshuincho are called "Nokyocho" (scripture submission books).
Eventually, Goshuin came to be given as proof of visiting the principal image of Buddha, and today, Goshuin can be received at both shrines and temples.
Size: 11.5 x 16 x 1.7 (cm)
Materials: (Inner paper) Hosho paper, (Title paper) Sha paper
Contents: Goshuincho, Title sticker, Guide
