Goshuin

Something that I've been asked about is what are those pictures with the stamps Joan?  They are Goshuin.  It's a way people document their pilgrimage to the various temples and shrines.  It has become a very popular way for tourists also collect a unique souvenir of their trip.     I didn't start taking pictures of the place with the stamps until Kyoto. 

Here's some more information.
