A goshuin is a stamp that is given as a proof when visiting a temple or shrine. The names of temples and shrines, the names of principal images and deities, dates, etc. are written in ink, and the treasure seal of the talisman is often stamped in vermillion ink. Originally, it is said that it was awarded as a proof of payment when dedicating a copied sutra. Get a goshuin at the temples and shrines you visit, and keep a photo and a record of your visit on your account.

However, Goshuin is not a stamp rally or a collector's item. It is a tradition based on the belief in Shinto and Buddhism that the Japanese have cherished since ancient times. Respect this tradition and don't forget to pay your respects when you visit the shrine and receive a goshuin.
