If there’s one thing that Ubisoft does well with their multitude of franchises, it’s creating dense environments filled with exploration. Assassin’s Creed Shadows is no different, as the vast world the studio has created is ripe for adventure. Whether it’s the various unique enemies you’ll come across on your adventures or investigating reported Yokai in the area, there feels like an overwhelming amount of content to dig your teeth into.

One such activity is participating in the numerous temples and shrines. Japan is a country of tradition and religion, at least back in the 1500s when Assassin’s Creed Shadows takes place. If you’ve ever been to the country, you’ll know that the number of temples and shrines feels infinite, and in Shadows, it’s well represented with some of the most iconic structures in the Kansai region.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows: Enryakuji Temple Guide

Part of the Omi region, find all Lost Pages in Assassin’s Creed Shadow’s Enryakuji Temple.

Purpose of Temples & Shrines

With each of the temples and shrines, there will either be lost pages that need collecting or shrines that need to be prayed to. Doing so will unlock a good amount of EXP along with a Knowledge point that can be used to upgrade Nao and Yasuke. Some of these locations have surprisingly well-hidden collectibles, but with this guide you’ll have no problem finding them.

The Kyokaiji Temple is found in the Harima region of Japan. It is located all the way to the northeast of the map, directly north of Hiraiyama Fort.

Lost Page Locations

Lost Page #1

The Kyokaiji Temple is more of a small village than an actual temple as the main buildings have been torn down. The main temple itself is barely standing, although people of the area have taken shelter in the walls that are still standing. There are only two Lost Pages to be found in the Kyokaiji Temple, and they’re in less than obvious spots, at least compared to what we’re used to. The first one can be found in the main Kyokaiji Temple building. This is a rundown structure that has a small scaffolding on the side for what we assume is for construction. Half the building itself is decimated, but there is a Lost Page still remaining. You’d think it would be found on the first floor, but instead the Lost Page is on the second. Climb the bamboo scaffolding and on the second floor you’ll find the first of two Lost Pages in the area.

Lost Page #2

The second Lost Page could be considered the first one you encounter, depending on which direction you entered the temple grounds from. If you enter from the south, you’ll likely come across it first, as it’s right next to the Gear Vendor. But, from the first Lost Page, head south of the area until you reach some villagers. A Gear Vendor will be standing by waiting for you to make a purchase, but your gaze should be more behind him. On some rubble behind the Gear Vendor, next to the destroyed roof of a once house, you’ll find the second and final Lost Page on the ground.
