PILGRIMAGE STAMP BOOKS
Pilgrims usually carry a stamp book, which they typically purchase at the first temple or shrine along the circuit. The pilgrim pays the custodian at each temple or shrine to stamp/inscribe their book as proof of their visit. The covers of these books are often quite artistic.
朱印 (しゅいん)
Shuin = Stamps & Inscriptions. The pilgrim typically collects stamps and inscriptions from each temple/shrine on the circuit.
朱印帖 . 朱印帳 (しゅいんちょう)
Shuin-chou = Stamp Book in which the pilgrim collects stamps and inscriptions from each temple or shrine in the circuit.
納経帳 (のうきょうちょう)nookyoochoo
Noukyou-chou = Stamp Book. Another term for Shuin-chou

There are stamp books for the many pilgrimages of Japan
and free ones for any temple a person visits.
I have a great collection myself, and I always enjoyed the priest writing the name of the place and adding the read seals.
Many temples print their very own stamp books with a pattern of the temple on the cover side.
The brocade covers of the more expensive versions are great works of art.
