◆What is Gokokuin?
Gokokuin is a proof of pilgrimage (memorial of visiting a demonic spot) given at shrines and temples associated with demonic spots such as ghosts, monsters and sorcery. It is basically written on black hosho paper with a vermilion stamp design.
This second project includes two types of Gokokuin stamps featuring designs of Rokudouchinnou-ji, located at Rokudo-no-Tsuji, famous as the entrance to the underworld, and Minatoya – Ghost Candy Shop, as well as a Gokokuin stamp walking map that will be useful for sightseeing around the area.
*"Gokokuin" is a trademark pending registration by JTB Corp. (December in 2023)
